Peyton Cooper brings old-school linebacker production and knack for impact plays
Peyton Cooper is an ETSU linebacker whose calling card is physical, productive play: in high school he piled up 157 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, four sacks and five forced fumbles in his senior season, then added game-snapping instincts and toughness at the next level. At Maryville College in the 2024 season, he logged 9 tackles, 1 sack and 1 interception, showing the kind of disruptive, all-over-the-field utility coaches love. He looks like a high-motor fit for a defense that wants reliability, edge, and a nose for the football.
