Today we have two players on the countdown with one being the younger brother of a Purdue legend. That’s right, Yanni Karlaftis is up today.

6’3”, 235 pounds
Linebacker/Defensive End
2023 Projection: Key Reserve
Last year Karlaftis saw his first extended action as a Boilermaker. After appearing in the maximum of four games during his first year, thus allowing him to redshirt, Karlaftis appeared in nine games last year. He made two tackles a piece in games against Indiana State and Northwestern.
