Cole Gridley brings active-tackle linebacker production and downhill energy to Valparaiso
Cole Gridley profiles as a physical, assignment-sound linebacker whose high tackle volume points to strong pursuit and reliable run support; in his high school career, he logged 127 total tackles, 83 solo tackles, 10.6 tackles per game, and 6.0 sacks, which suggests a defender who can finish plays and create disruption near the line of scrimmage[1]. That production makes him interesting for a team looking for toughness, range, and a player who consistently shows up around the ball rather than just chasing highlight plays[1].
