veteran Duke run-stuffer with proven experience
In the 2013 season, Sydney Sarmiento was one of Duke’s most seasoned defensive tackles, entering with 36 consecutive starts, 86 career tackles, 6.0 tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks, plus a reputation as a leadership piece and interior run defender. His differentiators were durability, snap volume, and versatility—he played both interior spots and logged heavy workloads for a Blue Devils defense that valued his steady, physical presence. If you need a dependable, experienced DT who can anchor against the run and keep the front organized, he fit the bill.
