Princeton’s disruptive linebacker with pass-rush juice and big-play instincts
John Callahan was a high-impact Princeton linebacker whose calling card was disruption: in the 2007 season, he ranked third in the Ivy League in sacks (4), fifth in tackles for loss (10.5), and added 60 total tackles, plus 3 forced fumbles in his Princeton career. Princeton’s own preview described him as the most experienced linebacker in the group, praising his athleticism, speed, and game instincts, and noting he was expected to play a bigger role in the run game. The big question is durability—he missed the 2008 season after an ACL tear, so his fit hinges on health and whether he can keep bringing edge and playmaking.
