Today's player is an incoming freshman that is likely headed toward a redshirt, but is a promising player for the future.
Sawyer Dawson - Fr.
Lakeland, FL (Plant City HS)
6'1" 215 pounds
Linebacker
2015 Projection: Likely redshirt

Dawson attacks runners, and actually drives the opponent backwards.
