seasoned Navy linebacker with size, range, and starting upside
Sullivan enters the 2026 season listed as a starter at inside linebacker (SAM) for Navy, with the staff noting his **great size** and that he **runs well** for the position. He has game experience, including 40 tackles, 2.0 tackles for loss, and a sack in 2017, but his profile is shaped just as much by durability questions as production: he missed the spring after off-season surgery and previously missed time with foot issues. If you want a linebacker who can fit Navy’s physical, assignment-driven defense and still offers athletic upside, he is worth attention.
