Ryan Cottrell brings disruptive depth and proven production to Sacred Heart’s defensive front
Cottrell’s value is in his **run-stopping toughness and backfield disruption**: in 2016, he played all 11 games, started eight, earned All-NEC Second Team honors, and posted 42 tackles with 4.0 tackles for loss and 2.0 sacks.[1] That stat line suggests a dependable interior defender who can hold the point, create negative plays, and stay on the field, which is exactly the kind of steady, physical presence a coach wants on the DL.[1][6]
