Corey Cobb Jr. is a young, physical Mercyhurst linebacker with special-teams juice
In the 2025 season, Corey Cobb Jr. was a redshirt freshman linebacker for Mercyhurst listed at 5-foot-11 and 225 pounds, and his profile still screams upside more than finished product[1][2]. He played in 2024 and recorded two assisted tackles, with later 2025 listings showing limited statistical output but a visible role on the roster and in game action[2][5][8]. His differentiators are his compact, downhill build, prior high-school defensive-player-of-the-year résumé, and a reputation for toughness and effort rather than flash[2][11]. If a team wants a high-motor linebacker who can grow into a larger role, he looks like a worthwhile add[2].
