Similar to his brother Princely Umanmielen, Princewill is 6-foot-5, 245 pounds, and is a disruptive defensive player. Over his last two seasons with the Cornhuskers, the edge rusher recorded 35 total tackles and 1.5 sacks, being a crucial part of their defense.
In addition to being an elite pass rusher, Umanmielen also spent a great deal of time in coverage, proving to be effective as a hybrid linebacker as well. With Pete Golding and Randall Joyner losing Princely Umanmielen, Jared Ivey, JJ Pegues, and many other defensive linemen, Princewill and his two years of eligibility will be crucial for Rebel’s defense in 2025.
