The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have struggled to generate a pass rush, but one Buccaneer is one of the best pass-rushers at his position: Kwon Alexander. Too bad the middle linebacker isn’t actually an edge rusher, but a blitzer.
The Pro Football Focus crew thinks he’s been the second-most effective rusher from a linebacker position (edge rushers not included).
Through 10 weeks of the season, the third-year linebacker has been disruptive on limited pass-rushing action, and produced three hits and three hurries on the 15 snaps where he’s been asked to rush the passer.
