Compact, productive Troy linebacker with proven tackling volume
Xavier Lamb brings the kind of steady, physical linebacker profile that coaches love: Troy lists him at 5-foot-9, 222 pounds, with 175 career tackles, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries, plus a high school record of 154 tackles in a season.[1] His value is less about flash and more about reliability, contact balance, and getting around the ball consistently; ESPN’s career stats also show 120 solo tackles and a turnover-making edge.[5] If you need a disciplined inside defender who plays with urgency and has already shown production, he’s a strong fit.[1][5]
