Philip Platania brings veteran DB toughness to Bryant
In the 2021 season, Philip Platania was a senior defensive back for Bryant listed at 5-foot-11 and 210 pounds, and he showed the kind of reliable, physical depth teams love in the secondary. He appeared in four games, recorded 3 tackles and 1 pass breakup, and had a 2-tackle Senior Day outing against LIU; in 2019, he also missed the rest of the season because of injury, so durability is part of the evaluation. He looks like a steady, hard-nosed fit for a defense that values experience, size, and willingness to do the gritty work.
