As a freshman, Birdsong was more of a hybrid and played at linebacker and defensive end. At UCF, he projects to play at linebacker and he’s coming off a solid season at Troup County. 

In 2022, Birdsong registered 49 tackles and 12.5 went for a loss. The Tigers went 12-2 last season in AAAA, Region 4.
