JMU LB with Elite Tackling Intensity and Special Teams Versatility
Josh Roach, a redshirt junior linebacker for the James Madison Dukes, stands out not just for his career-high five tackles in 2010 but for his relentless, high-intensity playing style that elevates every defensive series. While primarily a special teams contributor across six games, Roach differentiates himself with a rare blend of tackling precision and adaptability, making him a perfect fit for teams needing depth and intensity. His Lynchburg, VA roots reflect a gritty, no-nonsense personality, and though he has no major injury history, his intensity level is consistently top-tier. Roach’s versatility and drive make him a standout for coaches seeking a player who brings more than stats—someone who brings heart and hustle to the field.
