Eason

Eason got a sixth year of eligibility with Tennessee because of the 2020 pandemic and a redshirt 2021 season in 2025, and he was able to procure 31 tackles with 4.5 of those coming for loss. The 6-foot-2, 323-pound is literally built to be a run stuffer, and he showed at times the ability to split double teams with more quickness than you’d expect from a player of his size. He also showed to be a step slow at times, with very little success at winning his reps as a pass-rusher. Eason seems more likely than not to be a two-down player, and one who likely will be on a roster bubble barring something unforeseen. The 49ers also signed Notre Dame WR Will Pauling, Notre Dame S Jalen Stroman and Illinois DT James Thompson.

Florida has some work to do on this one. Eason (6'2/230) has taken unofficial visits to Arkansas and Ole Miss this offseason and will be checking out Arkansas once more on July 26. The Razorbacks might be in the catbird seat, with the Memphis native telling Rivals that he “love[s] everything about Arkansas right now.” Outlet analyst Woody Wommack believes that Arkansas is “the team to beat” for Eason’s pledge. Rivals ranks Eason as the No. 179 overall prospect in the 2020 class.
