veteran Bryant anchor with proven line-setting punch
Ahmad Assad is a 6-foot-4, 310-pound interior offensive lineman whose best calling card is reliability: in the 2023 season he started all 11 games at center and earned First Team All-Big South-OVC honors while helping Bryant average 31.2 points and 383.9 yards per game. He’s the kind of veteran OL coaches love—experienced, versatile enough to play guard and center, and part of an offense that has repeatedly been among the league’s better units. If a team wants a sturdy, assignment-sound blocker with proven production and leadership, he’s a strong fit.
