Jacob Richard is a veteran Drake DL with size, continuity, and old-school trench toughness
Jacob Richard brings the kind of defensive-line profile coaches love: a long, experienced frame and years in the program, including listed size growth from 244 pounds as a freshman in 2017 to 285 pounds in his final seasons[1]. The main takeaway is fit and reliability rather than flash—he has the build to hold the point, eat blocks, and help stabilize a front that values discipline and physicality[1]. For a team looking for a dependable interior presence who can make life easier for teammates, Richard is the right kind of grinder.
