Tackling machine and tone-setter at William & Mary
In the 2011 season, Jabrel Mines was the heartbeat of William & Mary’s defense, leading the Tribe with 109 tackles, adding 8.0 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, two interceptions, two forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries. He was praised as a strong, active linebacker with excellent pursuit and leadership, and he earned All-CAA and defensive player honors. If you want a physical, instinctive linebacker who flies to the ball and brings real edge, Mines is the kind of defender coaches trust to anchor a unit.
