Physical, fearless Appalachian State DB with proven ball skills
In the 2014 season, Joel Ross was an honorable-mention all-conference defensive back for Appalachian State, tied for eighth in the Sun Belt with three interceptions and helped limit top passing attacks; across 44 career games, he finished with 153 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, four interceptions, and 11 pass breakups. He was widely described as a versatile, hard-hitting cover corner with exceptional speed and a nose for the ball, which is exactly the kind of temperament coaches love in a DB. If you want toughness, contact willingness, and real playmaking instincts, Ross fits nicely.
