With the turbulence of this past year, there has not been any semblance of consistency. And even though Miami’s defensive end position was forced to make adjustments during fall camp, Senior EDGE, Quincy Roche, provided a steady pass-rush presence for the Canes throughout the season.
The star transfer was initially expected to complement Canes’ 2019 breakout and fellow draft prospect, Gregory Rousseau, to deliver a nightmare combination for opposing QBs. When Rousseau opted out for the season, the expectations for Miami’s disruptive pass rush were slightly tempered as it was unclear how other fellow draft prospect and 2020 breakout, Jaelan Phillips, would contribute on the opposite end of Roche after not playing since 2018.
