Brentton Ervin brings veteran linebacker instincts to EKU
Ervin is a seasoned Eastern Kentucky linebacker with a track record of doing the dirty work: in the 2019 season, he logged 30 tackles and 3.5 tackles for loss, and earlier at EKU he added a sack, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery in the 2017 season. He stands out more for feel, toughness, and assignment reliability than splashy stat lines, which is exactly what coaches love in a linebacker room. If your team wants a steady, physical, high-motor defender who has lived in the box and on special teams, he fits the bill.
