No purchase necessary. 50 U.S./D.C. 18+. Entry opens 3PM ET Dec 6, 2026 and closes 8PM ET Dec 18, 2026. Void where prohibited.See for complete details. The College Football Playoff (CFP) is not a sponsor or administrator of this contest.

Instincts: Does a good job of timing his first step off the snap of the football. Finds a clear path to the ball carrier, or creates one with his brute strength. Great motor to continually pursue the football.

Polish: Continues to utilize better leverage when rushing the passer. He went from a sheer power pass rusher to now using a good swim move. His stab-pass rush move, due to his power, is elite. Quickly shoots into the ‘A’ gap to create havoc.

Bottom Line: Collins provides immediate help to the Miami Hurricanes’ interior defensive line. His power, first-step quickness and aggressiveness make him an ideal one-technique. As his pass rush improves, Collins could become a difference-maker at the college level soon after arriving on campus.
