FIU Edge Rusher With Proven Backfield Production
Francois has the profile of a compact, disruptive **defensive end** at **6-1, 250** who has already shown he can finish plays, including **11.5 career sacks** and **51 solo tackles** in his FIU profile. His best selling points are burst, leverage, and a track record of getting into the backfield rather than just holding the edge, which makes him a fit for teams that value pressure and toughness over pure size. He was also a productive high school pass rusher and brings a no-frills, workmanlike defensive style that translates well to rotational front-seven roles.[1][2][3][6]
