Hester

Originally selected as the Raiders’ seventh-round pick in 2017, Hester has since notched 40 tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery across 41 games with Las Vegas, Philadelphia, and Washington. He failed to play a snap with the Packers last year, but could emerge as a rotational player if he makes Buffalo’s final squad out of camp.

Originally selected as the Raiders’ seventh-round pick in 2017, Hester has since notched 40 tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery across 41 games with Las Vegas, Philadelphia, and Washington. The 27-year-old counts as the final addition to Green Bay’s 90-man roster.

Hester (6’2/300) was a four-year starter on the Rockets’ defensive line, logging 31.5 career tackles for loss with 13 sacks and four forced fumbles. Ideally a three-technique interior rusher, Hester showed pass-rush ability via bull-rush force in the MAC, but wasn’t a truly explosive player on tape and isn’t big enough to dominate versus the run. He only earned second-team all-conference from the MAC coaches as a senior, then underwent shoulder surgery and didn’t work out before the draft. Also abnormally old for a rookie, Hester turns 25 in September. A run-of-the-mill, smaller-school defensive tackle, Hester’s ceiling is limited and his floor is basement low.

He’ll be added to the active roster rather than the team’s practice squad. Hester can carpool to D.C. with former Eagles teammate Wendell Smallwood, who the Redskins claimed off waivers yesterday. The 2017 seventh-rounder has amassed 32 tackles and one sack over 26 NFL appearances including two starts.

Hester showed promise in limited snaps last season, but unfortunately the Eagles already have a full house on the defensive line with mainstays Fletcher Cox and Malik Jackson both manning the interior. A seventh-round pick of the Raiders in 2017, Hester is headed for his third team in as many years.
