Kent State’s Richard Gray: a relentless edge setter with proven production
Richard Gray was a productive Kent State defensive lineman, finishing his career with 199 tackles, 23 sacks, eight forced fumbles and eight fumble recoveries, which screams disruptive playmaker in any front. In his 2014 senior season, he played in 10 games, started nine, and posted 29 tackles with 2.0 tackles for loss. The big differentiator: he wasn’t just chasing stats—he consistently showed finishing ability, ball disruption, and high-motor toughness, the kind of traits coaches love when they want a dependable, physical DL who can tilt games.
