Reliable interior presence for the Blue Hose
Hyland projects as a sturdy, high-motor defensive lineman who earned a starting role in 2023 and posted a career-best 26 tackles while appearing in all 11 games, showing the kind of consistency coaches trust. At 6-2, 230, he offers active run support and enough positional flexibility to stay on the field in multiple situations, though he profiles more as a dependable rotational-to-starter level piece than a pure splash-play disruptor. If your team values toughness, effort, and proven game-to-game reliability, he is a fit.
