Proffit is a tri-varsity sport athlete, playing track, baseball, and football. He measures in at 5’11 180-pounds. This past season, he had 109 total tackles (32 solo, 77 assisted), 8 TFL, 2 sacks, 1 QB pressure, 1 INT, and 1 FR. He has good athletic ability due to very good acceleration, good change of direction, speed, and lateral quickness. Proffit uses his good read and reaction speed to put himself in position to succeed. Good sideline to sideline range. Very good competitive toughness. He’ll run across the field to assist his teammates. He thrives as a downhill linebacker blocking gaps and attacking whoever is in the backfield. Proffit is an excellent run stopper with good pass coverage skills. When he’s blitzing, he uses his good get off speed and block shedding to get underneath the offensive line and into the backfield. I’m intrigued to see how he attacked this off-season!
