Summary

Oklahoma DT Gracen Halton plays similarly to Devante Wyatt and Javon Hargrave, but that's the point! He's a perfect fit for Jonathan Gannon's defense and has shades of early Hargrave in Philly. On this episode of Gutey's Guys we break down the player and dissect his fit with Gannon (spoiler: it's perfect).

understand that, though at six, two and and a half I think that frame is more

workable in terms of the density we've talked about with receivers with corners for this Packers
