Jared Ivey

Seahawks signed Ole Miss EDGE Jared Ivey.

Ivey played at Georgia Tech for his first two seasons, starting 11 games with 32 tackles and 6 TFLs as a redshirt freshman in 2021. He then spent the next three seasons as a fixture on the Ole Miss defensive line, sliding between three tech and EDGE while recording a team-high 11.5 TFLs in 2023. The Suwanee, GA native raised his game last year, playing almost exclusively EDGE and earning a pristine 90.6 overall defensive grade that ranked top-10 nationally. A smothering finisher, Ivey missed just five tackles in the last two seasons, spanning 1,102 snaps and 46 stops. A model of consistency, he recorded a 72nd percentile pass rush grade in each of his five collegiate campaigns. Possesses a long-cut 6’6/274 frame with 33 ½ inch arms after being billed at 285 at Ole Miss. Ivey moves very fluidly for his size, and does not appear that heavy at first glance. He played a good deal of 3-Tech, and did well penetrating but he can get high sometimes, affecting his base in run support. Ivey is athletic and cagey, but doesn’t get fortified when taking on pulling guards and double teams. His positional versatility and ability to create havoc in the pass game from multiple alignments should keep him employed for a long time.
