Alabama in the Pros

Will Anderson loves using the forklift move and emulating Nick Bosa as a pass rusher

Alabama linebacker Will Anderson is a student of the game and during his media availability at the NFL Combine this week he shared which NFL player he likes to emulate.

Anderson shared that he studies a lot of tape of 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa who is also the NFL’s reigning defensive player of the year.

Not a bad player for Anderson to model his game after.

“I like the forklift move. I like to watch Nick Bosa a lot,” Anderson said. “I like the way he does his (bull rush) and stuff like that. So I try to implement that in my game.”

Bosa and Anderson are two of the best pass-rushing prospects of the past several cycles and if Anderson is anything like Bosa or is able to continue his dominance from his time at Alabama he will be right up there with the elite defenders in the NFL.
