Hawaii DL Powerhouse with NFL Pedigree
Vaughn Meatoga, a 6'2", 280-lb Hawaiian native, dominated as a senior for the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors in 2011, earning second-team All-WAC honors with 38 tackles, 4.0 TFL, 3 sacks, and a forced fumble across 37 career starts—capping a college career highlighted by a career-high 8 tackles and 3 TFL vs. Weber State. His relentless interior pass rush, run-stuffing tenacity, and Shrine Game invite mark him as a high-motor differentiator; now a Bengals DT, his local intensity and pro readiness make him a perfect fit for teams seeking gritty, battle-tested D-line depth.
