Taheeb Sonekan’s calling card: disruptive, relentless, and already Ivy-tested
Taheeb Sonekan is a proven Penn defensive lineman whose best-known season came in 2019, when he started nine games, posted 35 tackles, 5.0 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, and four quarterback hits, while also showing rare game-changing juice with a historic two-blocked-field-goal performance in 2018[1][2][14]. The big reason to care: he’s the kind of edge defender who can wreck special teams, set an edge, and bring real backfield disruption when Penn needs a tone-setter, not just a stat-stuffer[1][2].
