“Metzner has an explosive first step, a great set of pass rush moves, and impressive size and athleticism he uses to beat almost any OL in front of him. He has a terrific mix of speed and power and does an excellent job using his long arms/size to work around OTs with ease, constantly making his way to the QB.

I’m equally impressed with Metzner’s versatility. He’s shown he can line up and produce at multiple spots along the DL and has also produced on offense. I wish I’d seen Metzner’s film sooner; he’s an extremely fun player to watch.”

Metzner committed to South Alabama back in June. I’m excited to see how he’ll continue to perform this postseason. He’s been dominant this year.
