rare speed, splash plays, and linebacker chaos
DeMarvion Overshown was a first-team All-Big 12 linebacker in 2022 after posting 96 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks for Texas, and his Longhorn career ended with 249 tackles, 30.5 TFLs, 9 sacks, 3 interceptions, and 17 pass breakups[3]. What makes him pop is the hybrid background—he was moved from safety to linebacker—and that shows up in his range, pursuit speed, and playmaking instincts; the big caution flag is durability, with major knee injuries later limiting his availability[1][6][7]. If you want a high-upside, high-energy defender who can erase space and make violent, momentum-swinging plays, he’s your guy; if you need a plug-and-play ironman, the injury history is the footnote that won’t stop talking[3][12].
