Active, physical DT with proven backfield disruption
Cottonham enters Louisiana with a clear calling card: production and twitch, after posting 58 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, 7 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and 2 fumble recoveries in his listed season stats. He was described by Louisiana Football Magazine as an “all out player with good feet and strong,” which points to an active, hard-charging interior defender who can win with effort and leverage rather than pure size. That profile fits a team looking for a disruptive, high-motor defensive tackle who can create chaos, not just eat space.
