Nate Holley has a knack for getting to the football. Used more as an additional linebacker than a last line of defense, he cares not for your offensive game plan. If there’s a tackle to be made, he usually makes it.
His expertise as a free safety is not in breaking up passes over the top, though he’s no slouch in that department. Rather, he’s most effective in making sure a back’s trip to the second level is as miserable as possible. That is, provided one is lucky enough to get there. Holley is a punishing, versatile tackler, and the proof lies not only in the film but also on paper.
