Fehoko

An undrafted free agent who spent the past three years with the Chargers, Fehoko arrives in Pittsburgh with four career starts to his name. He will be fighting for one of the final spots on the Steelers’ 53-man roster as defensive line depth.

Fehoko also missed last week’s game against Arkansas, and while he did play in the 29-0 loss to Alabama, he missed the previous week against Mississippi State as well. It sounds like he could play against Texas A&M next Saturday, but we’ll have to see if he’s able to practice next week.

Fehoko was able to play against Alabama, but it sounds like the injury is still bothering the talented defensive tackle. Fehoko has been able to play in games with limited practice time, but it would certainly be better if the defender got a practice in to have a better idea of his status for the Razorbacks.

Tigers HC Ed Orgeron deemed Fehoko to be questionable on Thursday. He’s sporting a brace or wrap on his left arm. Barring a late scratch, the expectation is that he will be able to play versus the Bulldogs.

Fehoko came out for pregame warmups with a brace on his arm after being labeled questionable entering the weekend. It does not appear that he’s been ruled out altogether, but at the very least, the Tigers may be looking to limit his snap count. We’ll pass along further word if he’s concretely nixed.

Fehoko was on the field for pregame warmups with a brace on his left arm, and the initial feeling was that he would not be able to start. Things have apparently changed however, as the redshirt junior was announced by LSU as one of the starters. Fehoko’s accounted for 15 total tackles (three for loss) and 1.5 quarterback sacks this season.

Fehoko was questionable for the October 20 game against Mississippi State, and while he was announced as a starter, Orgeron held him out for what appears to be precautionary reasons. He should be 100 percent for Saturday’s monster game against Alabama, and he’ll be tasked with helping stock the Crimson Tide run game.

Fehoko was the jewel of Tech’s 2015 recruiting class. He was a five-star prospect by Scout coming out of the prep ranks, and a four-star prospect by Rivals, 247sports and ESPN. Fehoko was a contributor from the day he stepped on campus. He started at defensive tackle in all 13 games of his freshman season in 2015 to earn All-Big 12 Honorable Mention. This is a huge loss for a defense that ranked dead last nationally in total defense this past season.

Fehoko opted on a transfer in mid-January. Everybody from Auburn to Washington to Wisconsin to LSU has since extended an offer to the former blue-chip recruit. “I’m just really looking at which school is going to provide the best fit for me,” explained the 6-foot-3, 287-pounder. Assuming he transfers to another FBS program, he will have to sit out the 2017 season. He would have two years of eligibility remaining starting in 2018.

Fehoko, a five-star recruit by Scout.com for the 2015 cycle, has been making the visiting rounds since announcing his transfer intentions near the end of January. LSU, Auburn and Louisville have all received check-ins from the 6-foot-3, 287-pounder. A visit to Georgia is also in the offing before Fehoko makes his final decision in 11 days. Regardless of which of these programs lands the soon-to-be-former Red Raider, he will have to sit out the 2017 season. He will have two years of eligibility remaining starting in 2018.
