The former FSU Star is projected to make an immediate impact in Los Angeles.
star defensive end Jared Verse was a monster on the field during his time with the Seminoles. After transferring from the FCS ranks from Albany and joining Florida State ahead of the 2022 season, Verse recorded 89 tackles , 18 sacks, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, and two blocked kicks during his two years in Tallahassee.
As a two-time All-American, it was no surprise that his explosiveness and power landed him with the LA Rams in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft with the 19th pick overall making him the highest-drafted player from FSU since Brian Burns was selected 16th overall in 2019.Verse and the Rams feel like a match made in heaven. Despite lacking ideal size and length, Verse possesses tremendous power and explosiveness. He plays with rare leverage at the point of attack.
The fact that 10-year veteran and future NFL Hall of Famer Aaron Donald is no longer roster makes it even more imperative that Verse comes out swinging as a rookie. He has a chance to be the next face of the franchise if everything goes to plan. “The biggest thing I took away from the questions I asked him, was he said, ‘You don’t need a huge arsenal of moves. If you have a couple good moves and execute them to the highest level of your ability you will destroy everyone,"Tommy Mire joined NoleGameday in 2023 as a writer and editor. He initially worked as lead voice at SBNation's Tomahawk Nation and contributes to football, NFL and recruiting coverage.
