Alex Light brings rare versatility and NFL-tested power to Richmond’s line
In the 2017 season, Alex Light was a 6-foot-6, 310-pound senior offensive lineman who appeared in every game for Richmond and had already started all 14 games in 2016, with coaches using him at tackle and guard because of injuries on the line[5]. He stood out for positional flexibility, durability, and a big-bodied frame that helped him become an FCS All-American and later reach the NFL, which is a strong signal that he can handle high-level assignments[6][9]. If a team needs a dependable lineman who can plug multiple spots without blinking, Light is the kind of gritty, low-drama, high-value blocker that quietly makes an offense better[5][6].
