Stanford’s powerful, high-effort edge presence with NFL pedigree
In the 2015 season, Aziz Shittu was a disruptive Stanford front-line defender who posted 78 career tackles, 5.5 sacks, 3 pass breakups, 2 fumble recoveries, and 1 forced fumble across his Stanford career, including a memorable 10-tackle, 2-sack Rose Bowl performance against Iowa[11][2]. Listed as a 6-3, 279-pound defensive end, he stood out for length, power, and active hands, and he also earned recognition as a 4-star recruit ranked No. 9 nationally at defensive tackle by 247Sports[6]. If you want a tough, experienced edge/inside rusher who can affect the game in multiple ways, Shittu checked that box in a big way[6][11].
