Riley Rider Riley Rider 6'0" | 200 lbs | LB Elkins | 2025 State WV is a hard-hitting linebacker for the Elkins Tigers and is your classic throwback middle linebacker. The 6’0 200 rising junior was a key cog in the Tigers’ defense as a sophomore in 2022 and looks to lead their defense to more success in the next two seasons. Rider is an intelligent middle linebacker and it’s no wonder why they trusted him to lead the defense early on. He reads and reacts very well and puts himself in the right position often. I mentioned his thumping abilities earlier and Rider can really lay the wood on opposing players. He’s a sure tackler and always around the ball. Rider will be a 2025 linebacker you need to know the next two years.
