Nelson is an explosive downhill run stopping linebacker with a nose for the football. He hits his top speed almost immediately and is in the backfield. Great instinct shadowing the ball carrier and running across the line of scrimmage while keeping his pads parallel. He plays with reckless abandon and we think his run-stopping instincts makes him a perfect fit as a 4-3 MLB at he next level. Really impressive weight lifting numbers to boot, Nelson is a dynamite stick of a hitter and we can imagine FBS programs will have a lot of interest in the coming months.
