Overview:

After a breakout season in 2020, Wooden is now the leader of this defensive line that has some question marks entering the season. Nonetheless, he is a pure playmaker that can get into the opposing backfield at will. That’s something new defensive coordinator Derek Mason and defensive line coach Nick Eason will be counting on him for in 2021.

If he stays healthy, the future is extremely bright for Wooden.
