Lopez is a long-framed defensive lineman whose game is driven by effort and disruption. He plays through the whistle and consistently finds himself around the football. His length allows him to extend, disengage, and close quickly, while his motor keeps pressure on offenses deep into drives.

Statistically, Lopez backed it up with 37 tackles, 4.5 sacks, and 7.5 tackles for loss, showing he can finish plays both behind the line of scrimmage and in pursuit. He’s the type of defender offensive lines hate to deal with late in games, still running, still chasing, still disruptive.

Outlook: Ascending edge/interior hybrid with a frame that can continue to add mass. One to monitor closely as recruiting attention ramps up.
