Rylan Woods brings proven tackle production and veteran edge to Valpo’s linebacker room
Rylan Woods is a senior linebacker at Valparaiso who arrived from Arkansas Pine Bluff with a track record of production: in the 2023 season he logged 61 tackles, 22 solo stops, and 3 tackles for loss, after 41 tackles and 3 TFL in the 2022 season. At 6-foot-0 and 240 pounds, he looks like a downhill, physical fit who can help stabilize the middle of a defense; his résumé suggests reliability, experience, and a nose for the ball, which makes him a sensible plug-in for a team wanting toughness over flash.
