Rashad Watson is the glue guy in Alabama State’s linebacker room
In the 2025 season, Rashad Watson piled up 100 tackles, 9.0 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, and three pass breakups, following a 2024 campaign where he led Alabama State with 64 tackles and started every game. He’s a compact, high-motor linebacker at 5-11, 205 who shows up everywhere, finishes plays, and clearly has the trust of the staff. The best fit for him is a defense that values consistency, downhill violence, and a tone-setting tackler who can stack and shed without needing flash to make an impact.
