He's almost the same size as Navarro Bowman. Sean Lee's not much bigger.
Key snippets from the article:
"Whatever Hull, 26, lacks in quickness and size (6-feet, 232) he makes up for in preparation, Gase said.
“He makes sure he knows exactly what he’s supposed to do,” Gase said. “He knows everybody else’s job as well.”
Saturday, it became Hull’s job to rotate in with the starters, calling it “a great opportunity” following a summer of working out with linebackers Sean Lee of Dallas and Paul Posluszny of Jacksonville. Between that and times he was called upon to fill in last year, Hull figures he’s ready for the responsibility."
And he's been very productive when starting.....
"In his start against the Cardinals, he recorded eight tackles, an interception and a pass defensed."
Vanderlinden should start a school for elite linebackers, truly amazing what he did with these guys.
