Brian Norris brings veteran depth and coverage instincts to FAMU’s linebacker room
Brian Norris is a senior linebacker at Florida A&M whose value is less about flashy box-score production and more about steady, experienced presence; ESPN lists him as active in 2025 after five seasons at USF and one at FAMU, with career defensive totals of 91 tackles, 2.5 sacks, 1 forced fumble, and 1 interception. His biggest differentiators are experience, versatility, and special-teams utility, but FAMU’s 2024 roster note says he did not play due to injury, so teams should weigh his football IQ and depth-value upside against durability concerns.[1][5]
