Darian Roseboro will lead ACC in sacks

The Wolfpack had the ACC leader in sacks last year with Bradley Chubb and his replacement, Darian Roseboro, should follow in his footsteps.

The senior pass rusher could have left for the NFL with the rest of the defensive line however a promise to his father had him return for one more year with the Wolfpack. That should set him up for a big year this coming season.

Roseboro already has 13.5 sacks at the collegiate level and currently ranks 15th in school history. He was able to reach this total while only starting two games, according to the school’s website.

Now that he is a full-time starter, Roseboro should have a big season in this defense and will finish leading the ACC in sacks.
