2024 NFL Draft: Troy EDGE Richard Jibunor Draft Profile and Scouting Report
A transfer from Auburn, Richard Jibunor has stepped into a starting tole at Troy over the last couple of years, becoming a very high-impact defender and pass rusher. Jibunor best projects as a standup RUSH EDGE, and was featured on both the Senior Bowl Watchlist and the Shrine Bowl 1000 in 2022, and I fully expect him to remain on those lists in 2023. Born in Delta State, Nigeria, Jibunor majors in social science and has three siblings.
