Disruptive, physical DT with proven backfield impact
Teal profiles as a hard-nosed interior defender who consistently creates negative plays; in his senior year at South Carolina’s Chapin, he posted 89 tackles, 21 tackles for loss and a sack, and as a junior added 70 tackles and four sacks.[1] Recruiting coverage called him a consensus 3-star defensive tackle ranked No. 39 at the position by ESPN, noting his uncommon combination of size and movement speed for a lineman.[2] The fit appeal is simple: he looks like a stout, effort-driven run stopper with enough burst to stress blocking schemes, though the publicly available info is high-school-era and does not provide current NC State production.[1][2]
