Julius Puryear brings twitchy, downhill linebacker upside to Delaware
Julius Puryear is a promising Delaware linebacker who arrived with legit pedigree: a 6-foot-2, 220-pound three-star recruit, a four-year starter and two-time captain at Jensen Beach, and a high school production line that included 252 tackles, 33 sacks, 92 tackles for loss and six interceptions over his final three seasons. In the 2025 season, he saw limited college action, but his profile screams run-stopping range, disruptive instincts, and leadership. He looks like a fit if you want a tough, high-motor LB with upside rather than an instant stat-sheet hog.
