summary
summary
George Gumbs Jr. is an athletic, high-motor edge defender with SEC experience and developmental pass-rush upside. At 6'4", 260 lbs, Gumbs possesses a lean, length-driven frame that allows him to play with range and pursuit ability off the edge.
Within Florida’s defensive front, he has functioned as a rotational defensive end capable of generating pressure through effort, angle, and speed-to-power flashes. His game is built more on athleticism and motor than refined counter sequencing or elite bend.
With continued technical growth, Gumbs projects as a rotational edge defender with developmental starting upside.
