Averill Sutchar poised to start at outside linebacker for San Diego
Averill Sutchar enters the season as a third-year player expected to compete for the starting outside linebacker job at San Diego, which signals trust in his readiness and defensive upside. In the previous season, he played in 6 games and recorded 9 tackles and 1 sack, showing he can contribute in both run support and backfield pressure. His value is less about gaudy volume and more about being an ascending, assignment-ready defender who has already earned a larger role on the Toreros’ defense.
