Contextualizing Alex Highsmith’s 2019 College Sacks At Charlotte

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Charlotte edge-rusher Alex Highsmith in the third-round of the 2020 NFL Draft on Friday and since then we’ve been scouring his tape to learn as much as we can in a short period time about him. As part of one of our many early breakdowns of Highsmith’s college tape, I present to you a contextualization of his sacks that he registered in 2019.

In total, Highsmith, who measured in at the scouting combine earlier this year at 6031, 248-pounds with 33 1/8-inch arms and 9 1/8-inch hands, was credited with 14 sacks in the 13 games he played in last season.
