Markel Winters, Defensive End

Markel is a JUCO transfer from Jones County. As Ole Miss’ total defense ranked 111th in the nation according to the NCAA, Winters is a sight for sore eyes. At 6’3″ and weighing 260, Winters is definitely ready for SEC battles in the trenches.

He is quick off the ball and has the technique to bypass offensive linemen. Markel was the #4 JUCO weak side DE via 247 sports.
