Jacksonville uses a 3-4 defense that emphasizes disciplined pass rush lanes and strong interior line play to free up linebackers, particularly in nickel and sub packages.
Year 1 as a core special teamer and rotational inside linebacker, with the ceiling to develop into a starting three-down off-ball linebacker.
A true 4-3 one-gap penetrating front where his run-and-chase athleticism might be over-leveraged against power.
Muma's intelligence and disciplined play make him a good fit for a system that values instinctual linebackers in both run support and zone coverage. Like his pro comparison, Luke Kuechly, Muma plays with sideline-to-sideline range but needs to improve his take-on blocks and functional strength.
Selected #70 overall in Round 3 of the 2022 NFL Draft by Jacksonville Jaguars out of Wyoming.
