Jamar Waiters brings edge-setting potential to Nicholls’ defensive front
Waiters is a defensive end worth watching because his value will come from *how he affects plays*, not just box-score stats: edge pressure, setting the run, and bringing consistent physicality to a Nicholls defense that has recently played in lower-scoring, tighter games. Nicholls allowed 23.25 points per game in 2024, so a DE who can win early downs and force offenses off schedule can matter a lot. If he shows reliable motor, toughness, and the ability to convert speed-to-power, he fits best as a rotational impact defender with upside rather than a pure stat-chasing prospect.
