Jamarius Dinkins brings length, power, and rotational value to Purdue’s defensive front
Dinkins is a 6-foot-5, 305-pound defensive lineman who profiles as a disruptive interior piece with the size to anchor against the run and enough burst to contribute as a pass-rush rotational player. At Kentucky in 2023, he played in 11 games with 9 tackles, a tackle for loss, and 2 quarterback hurries, and in Purdue’s 2025 season he logged 9 tackles, a sack, and a tackle for loss across 9 games. His appeal is his frame, versatility, and proven game experience; he looks like a fit for teams wanting a physically imposing DL who can develop into more than just a plug-in body.[1][6][7]
