veteran linebacker with a disruptive, tackle-heavy résumé
Omar Howard’s current Richmond profile is hard to ignore because the Spiders’ linebacker room has leaned on production from the second level, and Howard is part of that identity. In the 2016 season, he was listed at 6-foot-1 and 240 pounds, started all 14 games, and led Richmond with 136 total tackles, a stat line that screams downhill, every-down reliability[2]. He was also profiled by Richmond as a captain and described as one of the guys, which hints at leadership and locker-room trust beyond the box score[3]. If your team wants a physical, high-commitment linebacker who brings intensity and credibility, he fits the bill.
