Daily News | Temple’s Layton Jordan arrives as an edge rusher after long road to success
After a slow start to his college career, Temple junior outside linebacker Layton Jordan has emerged as one of college football’s premier pass rushers this season.
Jordan’s role on defense has expanded. He earned rotational snaps as a defensive lineman and tallied one sack and 5.5 tackles for loss in 2021. The original transition to outside linebacker was challenging because of Jordan’s inexperience in coverage. He learned more about coverage schemes after watching hours of film.“You turn the film on, he is fitting on guards and tackles pulling his way,” Drayton said at a press conference two weeks ago. “He is not flinching. He is a tough football player.”
“He is always on me,” Jordan said. “Always telling me what I have to do. He coaches me differently because he is not my [position] coach.”
