Scouting Dossier

PFF

Strengths

● Tall, good-looking frame, with room to continue adding weight ● Bursts off the ball with body dip to threaten blockers inside and outside ● Uses quickness to set up swipe, flash-club or arm-over moves ● Prioritizes rush hands just as much as (if not more than) his feet ● Embraces physicality of the position to spill in run game 370 Back to table of contents -- 374 of 629 -- ● Not the strongest on the field but plays with pop to punch himself out of trouble ● Motor doesn’t have an off switch and leads directly to production ● Energetic presence who likes to connect and compete with teammates (NFL scout: “He makes everyone else better.”) ● Arguably the most impressive prospect during East-West Shrine practices

Weaknesses

● Play strength is average at best (upper body and lower body) ● Pads rise quickly, hindering ability to win with leverage ● Mediocre arm length, which shows in multiple ways ● Counter timing lacks refinement ● Relentless play style leads to overaggressive angles and missed tackles ● Never had more than five sacks in a season, which reflects some of his finishing issues ● Medical feedback on right knee will be crucial: right knee surgery after 2023 season, which led to a bone infection and “complications” that kept him sidelined for entirety of 2024 season; stress fractures in right leg caused by rehab, which required another surgery (Feb. 2025) that included placement of metal rod in his shin — recovery sidelined him for spring practices at Wisconsin

Projection

A one-year starter at Wisconsin, Reiger aligned as a wide edge rusher in defensive coordinator Mike Tressel’s four-man front. While at Louisville, he started out as Yaya Diaby’s backup before injuries took their toll. He didn’t practice for 18 months (December 2023 through June 2025) and was advised to medically retire. But he resuscitated his football career after transferring to Madison, averaging 3.8 pressures per game in 2025 (second most in the Big Ten). Reiger doesn’t have much of a resume because of injury setbacks, but his 2025 film showed NFL-quality talent. With his linear twitch, he thrives using weaponized hands and various speed-flash moves to break down blockers. He is currently an immature finisher with too many “almost” sacks on his tape. Against the run, he gives outstanding effort, although he struggles to consistently lock out and control edges. Overall, Reiger needs to continue developing his strength, but he is an explosive athlete with promising pass-rush instincts. The medicals are an unknown variable in his draft grade and projection.
