SDSU's Intense, Versatile LB with All-State Pedigree and Nickel Capability
Andrew Price, a 6'1", 205-lb linebacker for South Dakota State, is a high-intensity defender who earned 2024 All-State First Team honors after leading his high school squad in tackles (62.5) and TFLs (13.5)[3][10]. His differentiator is elite versatility: while listed as an LB, he possesses safety/nickel skills with a 4.16 pro agility score and 9'9" broad jump, enabling him to cover backs and blitz effectively[6][7]. Price's 285-lb bench press and 370-lb squat signal rare power for his size, making him a physical force in the box[6]. With no reported injury history and a reputation for film-savvy intensity, he's a perfect fit for teams needing a hybrid defender who excels in both run support and coverage[3][10].
