E.J. Levenberry came to FSU as a four-star linebacker recruit. He checked in at 6’3 225 pounds and carried a player rating of 92.26.

Levenberry played as a true freshman and had 39 tackles while playing mostly in reserve duty and special teams.

He was thought to have a bigger role in the defense in 2014, but Reggie Northrup surpassed him and led the team in tackles with 122. Levenberry decided to transfer to UCONN in 2015.

Grade- D

Like others, Levenberry receives this grade because he never became a significant contributor to the team. The bad part is he would likely have been a starter in 2015 or 2016 had he not transferred.
