Josiah Longo Josiah Longo 6'0" | 210 lbs | DL Clearview | 2025 State OH uses his speed from the edge to get into the backfield quickly and stop plays before they develop. A quick-twitch athlete with good body control, Longo has great closing speed to lock onto a ball carrier and force bad decisions. He has a nose for the football to create stops and turnovers. Has solid tackling abilities to bring down fleeing quarterbacks with good form to bring them down in a hurry. Can get creative with his tackling while on the run to keep a quarterback contained. Is able to get off blocks with efficiency to cause further disruptions or sacks. While he plays fast with the goal of getting after the quarterback, Longo reads defenses in the RPO and slows his game down to prevent big plays past him. He is deceivingly strong for his size and paired with his speed make him a player that can get around offensive linemen in a number of ways. Longo has impressive film and is a guy that can come up clutch for his team in big situations. He is a player worth keeping an eye on as a sack specialist.
