Ross measures in at 6’1 210, and had showcased his good run stopping ability all season. He had 82 total tackles (28 solo, 54 assisted), 8 TFL, 2 sacks, 2 PD, and 1 FF. Ross lined up as both a linebacker and defensive end. He has good athletic ability due to very good lateral agility, acceleration, and good speed. He has a quick twitch to him. Good mental processing by IDing gaps and rushing through them with ease. As a defensive end, he uses his good hand placement and hand strength to move the OL out of the way. He has a good spin move and a good bull rush. As a linebacker, he is always watching the ball carrier. He is a hard-hitting linebacker uses his versatility to bring a different element to this defense. Not every day you see a MLB succeed at defensive end.
