Bradley Chubb-NC State

Bradley Chubb decided to return to NC State for his senior year and it could pay off similar to how it did for DeMarcus Walker at FSU.

Chubb had 57 tackles on the season, leading the team with 21.5 tackles for loss and 10 sacks.

Chubb was held in check against the ‘Noles in 2016, but like most great players, commands attention which opens up opportunities for his teammates to make plays.

He’s incredibly explosive with a number of moves who can bend around the edge or shoot the inside gaps as seen a number of times in the video. As we’ve pointed out, NC State’s defensive line will be one of the best the ‘Noles will face, and Chubb is its fiery leader.
