Memphis' Local Redshirt Freshman OL Will French: High-Upside Powerhouse in the Making
Will French, a 6-4, 272-pound redshirt freshman from Memphis' Christian Brothers HS, brings hometown grit to the Tigers' line with elite strength (78 rating), stamina (91), and pass block finesse (77) per EA CFB 26 ratings—perfect for wearing down defenses over four quarters[2][4]. Yet to see game action after redshirting in 2024 on an 11-2 bowl team, his low injury risk (84) and toughness (85) signal durability, while his agility archetype hints at surprising movement for a big man[1][5]. Care because he's a raw, motivated local gem with NFL frame potential; ideal fit for power-run schemes needing long-term starters.
