Spence's athleticism and play recognition make him a valuable asset in a run-and-hit defense, particularly as an inside linebacker where he can leverage his tackling. Make sure this is a JSON and that it matches the requested shape.
Selected #86 overall in Round 3 of the 2012 NFL Draft by Pittsburgh Steelers out of Miami (FL).
