Here’s how Hurricanes DE Greg Rousseau is expanding his game ahead of NFL draft

Miami Hurricanes defensive end Greg Rousseau developed quite the reputation as an elite pass rusher in 2019 to elevate himself as a first-round 2021 NFL draft prospect.

Accumulating 15 ½ sacks in a redshirt freshman season where he only became a UM starter about halfway through, the 6-foot-6, 265-pound pass-rushing specialist is working on developing all aspects of his game after opting out of the 2020 college football season to prepare for the draft.

Of course, it would be savvy of whatever pro team that decides to draft him to primarily use his greatest skill, but the mystery of what defensive system Rousseau gets drafted into has him using his time to add abilities he hasn’t shown in college.
