Trevor Short brings versatile, high-upside linebacker energy to Furman
Trevor Short entered Furman as a 6-foot-3, 208-pound defender with rare two-way-ish versatility in his background, having played outside linebacker, cornerback, safety, and edge in high school, which points to a player with range, twitch, and natural feel for the game. Furman’s 2024 recruiting release also noted first-team all-district honors and utility-player recognition, suggesting he is a competitive, do-it-all linebacker prospect rather than a one-note hitter. For 2026, Furman lists him on the roster at 6-3, 247 and as a junior, so the key question is whether that added size has turned his traits into a more complete, physical FCS defender.
