Ole Miss Standout Turned NFL Depth LB with Tackling Pedigree
Otis Reese IV, a versatile safety/linebacker hybrid from Ole Miss Rebels, amassed 214 tackles (90 solo), 10 TFLs, 4.5 sacks, 2 INTs, and 6 PDs in his college career, showcasing elite instincts, speed, and coverage range that made him a special teams ace and rotational defender.
