David Turner, currently the defensive line coach at Mississippi State, spoke to the Tribune recently to provide insight into Gervon Dexter’s game and how he projects in the NFL.
. But the Bears got a young player with upside at the position in the second round, choosing Florida’s Gervon Dexter with the 53rd pick.David Turner, currently the defensive line coach at Mississippi State, coached that position for the Gators from 2019 through 2021. He was part of not only recruiting Dexter, but also coaching him for Dexter’s first two seasons in Gainesville, Fla.
What would you think? He was raw with a lot of athletic ability. There are a lot of things you can coach, but you can’t coach 6-foot-6, 280 pounds. From that standpoint, he had all of the tools. He was a natural and aggressive kid. The good thing about football, you don’t get five fouls . So he can rough them up a little bit and he doesn’t have to worry about fouling out.
