Dondre Howell brings veteran disruption and edge-setting juice to Elon’s front
Dondre Howell is a proven Elon defensive lineman whose game has been built on disruption, effort, and leadership: in the 2016 season he started all 11 games, posted 31 tackles, tied for the team lead with 3.0 sacks, and led the Phoenix with six quarterback hurries. Elon’s coaches also singled him out as one of the defense’s hardest workers, and his ability to tip passes, pressure the quarterback, and force momentum-shifting plays makes him the kind of tone-setter coaches love. If you want a dependable DL who can hustle, create chaos, and elevate the unit’s intensity, Howell fits.
