Landon Goodwell brings linebacker toughness, playmaking range, and special-teams value to UTEP
In his 2008 season at UTEP, Goodwell was a versatile, high-effort linebacker who played all 12 games, made three starts, and produced 32 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, 2 pass breakups, 2 QB hurries, and a fumble recovery; he also added short-yardage/fullback utility and even scored on a one-yard reception. That kind of two-way physicality makes him intriguing if you need a gritty, assignment-sound defender who can disrupt plays, help on special teams, and fill multiple roles without needing the ball in his hands.[1]
