Summary
Cashius Howell is a relentless edge rusher who compensates for his relatively short arms with an “11 out of 10” motor. He’s a high-energy defender who uses a powerful bull rush to force offensive tackles into the quarterback’s lap. He’s also surprisingly versatile, showing the athletic ability to drop into coverage and match running backs or tight ends in space when needed.
