Sam Greene looks like Kentucky’s most proven edge presence
In 2026, Sam Greene enters Kentucky as a senior outside linebacker with real SEC-ready snaps and comeback buzz after a torn ACL cut short his 2025 breakout. He logged 41 career tackles, 6.0 tackles for loss, and 2.0 sacks, and Kentucky says he’s its most experienced outside linebacker; Pro Football Focus also tagged him as the SEC’s ninth-best edge rusher entering 2026. The appeal is easy: power, length, and production-flashes with enough toughness to project as a steady, high-floor fit in the Jack role.
