Timon Akins brings veteran linebacker production and downhill toughness to Albany
Akins is a seasoned, physically sturdy linebacker who has shown real playmaking upside over multiple stops, including a standout 2021 season at UAPB with 65 tackles and 9.5 tackles for loss, followed by a 2024 Albany debut in which he played in one game and made two solo tackles. His value is in his experience, proven TFL production, and ability to fit as an experienced run-stopper who can flash in the backfield; the main question is current health and whether he can reclaim the consistent impact he showed earlier in his career.
