Elijah Douglas brings length, physicality, and developmental upside to Robert Morris' defensive backfield
Douglas is a high-upside defender who came out of Pine Forest as a multi-position athlete and three-sport type of player, highlighted by a 2021 season with 69 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, and 3 sacks; recruit evaluators listed him at 6-foot-4 and 275 pounds with a strong national profile in the DL ranks before his college transition. The appeal is his size, versatility, and disruptive instincts more than proven college production, so he looks like a fit if Robert Morris wants a physical, toolsy defender who can be molded into a matchup problem and special-teams tone-setter.
