Had a season-high four tackles in consecutive games against Chicago and Washington in December after getting his first sack of the season earlier in the month.

College: Four-year letterman and two-year starter. Started all 11 games at left end for Ole Miss as a senior, finishing the year with 36 tackles, 7.5 tackles for a loss, 2.5 sacks, six pass break-ups, three quarterback hurries, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovering. Was named Rebel Quarterback Club Player of the Week three times during the 2005 season. Played in eight games as a junior, starting seven at left defensive end. Had 23 tackles, five tackles for a loss, one sack and one interception. Played in 13 games in both of his first two seasons, earning one start in each. In those two years, he combined for 46 tackles, 6.5 tackles for a loss, one sack, four passes defensed, seven quarterback pressures, one interception and one blocked kick.
