Texas A&M game exposed him and end of his freshman year. He never really had a position bc he’s severely limited against the run at DE and not a good LB.

Jimbo figured him out and he was never the same again.
I can’t believe only two other people remember that.

Re: Terrible Usage & Lack of Talent
__________________________________________________
I don't always agree with Lester, but in my opinion and understanding of the game, I kinda agree here at face value. We knew Perkins wasn't going to be an everyday DE (If you did, you don't know ball - no disrespect). I think the year lost due to injury caused slower development at more traditional LB spots. He couldn't truly flourish last year, because we didn't have the talent and depth to allow him to...but to say that he was bad last year etc. isn't really true. He played the STAR really well, given how much he was in coverage. He was not a liability.
I think we're going to see him play a Jabrill Peppers type role in the NFL where he's going to move from hybrid safety to weak side LB, and you'll see his range on display.
