Taylor Comfort
Wins his gap play after play. Second year in the Washington State defensive front. A game that shows it: 4 tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss against Utah — Week 5, 2018.
Play style
Stout at the point of attack — steady tackle-for-loss production without a standout pass-rush number.

What the box score actually says
20 tackles. 0 passes defended. 0 interceptions. 3.5 TFL.
Counts only, never a rate — splash-event sample sizes this small (interceptions, pass breakups, TFL) are noise as a rate and signal only as a tally.
No outlet on our list has written about him by name this season.
