WSU's Captain EDGE with NFL Bull-Rush Power
Washington State senior EDGE Nusi Malani (6-4, 263 lbs) capped his 2025 career with 20 tackles, 3.5 TFLs, and 2 sacks over 13 games, earning team captain honors and Polynesian College Football Player of the Year watch list nods. Transfer from Virginia, he stands out with a devastating bull-rush that disrupts backfields, though scouts note needs for refined technique to dominate 1-on-1s consistently (247Sports). A high-motor leader with Polynesian heritage grit, he's an ideal fit for NFL teams seeking raw power and intangibles in a developmental edge rusher—watch for late-round upside.
