Physical, high-motor Tennessee edge defender with proven production and gritty leadership
Roman Harrison has been a rugged, disruptive piece for Tennessee, with the Vols listing him at defensive line/edge and ESPN showing 55 solo tackles and 8.5 sacks in his college career profile. Tennessee’s roster bio highlights why coaches like him: he was the 2018 Georgia Class 5A Defensive Player of the Year, posted 188 tackles, 50 tackles for loss and 21 sacks in high school, and has carried that “plays with grit” reputation into Knoxville. He’s the kind of fit for a team that values strength, effort and edge-setting more than flash.
