Timothy Passmore Jr.
Defensive Line
6'1" 298-Pounds
Cocoa Florida
Cocoa High School


Evaluation: 

A beefy, hard-nosed player with experience on both sides of the ball in the trenches, Passmore Jr. projects as a defensive tackle at his size. The nimble big fella possesses lower body girth, which enables him to anchor. He demonstrates heavy hands, sound pad placement, along with effective stack and shed ability. Passmore Jr. has shown the ability to engulf double teams and should develop into a valuable interior lineman. He reportedly has been timed in the 4.9-range, can bench 285 pounds, squats 425 pounds, deadlifts 425 pounds and tested 4.70 in the short shuttle. The Huskies lack depth on the defensive line, so there could be opportunity for Passmore Jr. to receive playing time early.
