Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Pettinger is a quality edge rusher. The 6’0 165 pound rusher had 74 total tackles (51 solo, 23 assisted), 4 TFL, 7 sacks, and 3 QB pressures. He has good athletic ability due to good acceleration, lateral agility, speed, and change of direction. Good initial quickness out of his stance engaging with the defender first. Low pad level and good knee bend. Very good bend around the edge. Good hand placement and very good hand strength to swat away OL’s arms. Good block shedder and good get off speed. Very good spin move, and a powerful bull rush to knock the OL around. This kid plays with tenacity and fire as well. Very good competitive toughness. Very good tackling, as he stops the ball carrier in their tracks. I’m looking forward to Pettinger having another solid season under his belt.
