Eastern Michigan EDGE Jose Ramirez was one of the most productive players in college football in 2022, as the 6’1, 249-pound grad student tallied 66 total tackles, including 19.5 for a loss and 12 sacks. Ramirez is from the same program as current Las Vegas Raiders EDGE Maxx Crosby, and in an interview with Steelers Depot at the Shrine Bowl, Ramirez talked about learning from Crosby along with his collegiate journey, which included stops at three different schools.
Ramirez was originally a three-star prospect from Florida who committed to play at Arizona under Rich Rodriguez. At the end of his freshman year though, the coaching staff, including Rodriguez, was let go, and Ramirez transferred.
