Ykeem Wells brings veteran edge-setting grit to Middle Tennessee
Ykeem Wells is a battle-tested 6-foot, 258-pound defensive end whose value is in size, discipline, and steady run-defense presence rather than flashy sack totals; across his Middle Tennessee career, he has 28 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, and 1 forced fumble, with 17 solo tackles, and he’s been noted more as a reliable rotational piece than a stat-sheet hunter[1][7][10]. If a team wants toughness, experience, and a low-drama locker-room fit, Wells profiles as the kind of defender coaches trust to do the dirty work.
