3-4, two-gap outside linebacker, built on versatility and disruption from multiple angles.
Immediate situational pass rusher with the upside to develop into an every-down starter, leveraging his athleticism to impact both run and pass.
Pure 4-3 defensive end tasked with consistently setting a hard edge against the run due to his lighter frame.
Mingo's exceptional athleticism and speed at his size project best as a dynamic edge rusher in a 3-4 scheme, exploiting mismatches in space.
Selected #6 overall in Round 1 of the 2013 NFL Draft by Cleveland Browns out of LSU.
