Ja'Darious Morris brings raw interior juice for Middle Tennessee
Morris is a 6-foot, 261-pound redshirt sophomore DT for Middle Tennessee who has already shown he can flash as a disruptive interior piece, and the stat sheet hints at a role that’s still growing. In the 2024 season, he logged 2 tackles in limited action, while his high school résumé included 33 tackles, 5 sacks, and 3 fumble recoveries as a junior, which speaks to active hands and playmaking upside. At his best, he looks like a compact, energetic downhill defender who could fit a rotation that values effort, leverage, and toughness.
