Dani Dennis-Sutton. That’s a name to know in the 2026 NFL Draft class.
Dennis-Sutton is a talented defensive end expected to be selected on day 2 of the draft this year. The 22-year-old satisfies what the Seattle Seahawks need from a highly-touted edge rusher beginning in 2026.
The Delaware native recorded 8.5 sacks as well as 12 tackles for loss in 2025 at Penn State. Dennis-Sutton also registered 8.5 sacks in 2024.
Dennis-Sutton’s play in his junior and senior seasons at Penn State serve as a precursor for what he’s capable of producing at the NFL level, in the right situation. Seattle currently has DeMarcus Lawrence as well as Derick Hall as their edge rushers. Lawrence and Hall helped the Seahawks win the Super Bowl at the end of last season.
Despite that, the Seahawks have the championship culture to nurture Dennis-Sutton early in his career behind Lawrence and Hall on the outside.
