Stanford’s rangy, high-IQ linebacker with NFL pedigree
Joey Alfieri built his Stanford reputation as a long, athletic outside linebacker who could run sideline-to-sideline and finish plays with toughness; Stanford’s own profile highlighted his versatility and athleticism, while his 2018 season production included 37 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks. His differentiator was not just stats—it was his ability to stay composed, diagnose quickly, and play with a smart, assignment-sound edge that fit Stanford’s system. If you want a linebacker with length, instincts, and a proven Power Five pedigree, Alfieri checks the box.
