Explosive Spur Hybrid Who Lit Up South Carolina's Defense in 2014
Sharrod Golightly, a 5-10, 192-pound senior spur (hybrid safety/linebacker) for the South Carolina Gamecocks, capped his 2014 college career with a stellar 57 tackles, 7.5 TFLs, 1.5 sacks, 1 INT, and 3 PDs—showcasing elite speed, tackling tenacity, and coverage instincts in DC Loren Gordon's aggressive scheme. A key leader who earned coach Steve Spurrier's trust amid high expectations, he drew NFL interest as a Broncos rookie camp invitee; his compact frame and relentless motor make him a perfect fit for sub-package roles on teams needing versatile, high-energy defenders.
