Desmond Evans Back Home Again

Posted May 16, 2022
After two years playing in a hybrid defensive end/outside linebacker role, in which Desmond Evans began most snaps standing upright, he is back in his comfort zone: hand on the ground, getting around offensive tackles, and making a bee-line toward quarterbacks. That is the junior’s job now for UNC’s football team, and it’s one he's thrilled to embrace. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
