With two outstanding defenders already in the fold, Anwar Witherspoon Anwar Witherspoon 6'2" | 185 lbs | LB St. Thomas Aquinas | 2026 State NJ is perhaps the most acclaimed defender the Trojans roster. Although I think he can sink to his drop a bit more deeply, he is a bit longer of a linebacker and thus inherently does an outstanding job clogging passing lanes and getting his hands on passes you might not expect. It seems as though he reads down-down-kick to the outside a bit better than iso directly at him. Where Roberts and Frias before him where outstanding profile tacklers, Witherspoon has mastered leverage tackling a bit more, using his momentum as a weapon to bring ball carriers down. He uses his hands well to catch the ball, although when he does possess it Witherspoon carries it very low and loose away from his body. An area missing on Witherspoon’s tape is his open-field speed.
