Derrick Connor brings old-school trench grit to FAMU
Derrick Connor has been a rotational force for Florida A&M, with earlier FAMU seasons showing a sturdy, assignment-sound defensive lineman who can create disruption without needing the spotlight. His best differentiator is his physical, hard-nosed style: he plays with edge, understands leverage, and brings veteran toughness to the Rattlers’ front. The main question for any team is fit and current role, since the available public data points are limited and mostly historical, but the profile says “reliable, battle-tested, and disruptive in the dirty work.”
