  • After a rough showing against Appalachian State in Week 4, Wake Forest edge defender Duke Ejiofor was a dominant force for the Demon Deacons against Florida State on Saturday.
  • He posted three QB hurries and seven total defensive stops, and a ridiculous run defense grade of 99.5. For the season, he has put up 14 total pressures and 18 defensive stops.
  • While he lacks elite explosion off the edge, he is a physical force against blocks on the edge, which allows him to dominate against the run as well as rack up pass-rush stats.
