Name: Atem Ntantang
Position: Defensive Back
Number: 29
Year: Senior
Height: 5’11”
Weight: 195
Hometown: Purcellville, Virginia
High School: Woodgrove
2016 Stats: Ntantang played in all 13 games last year, primarily on special teams. He recorded 4 total tackles.
Projections: Ntantang projects as a pretty clear special teamer next year. He showed up in the spring game though, recording 6 tackles and recovering a fumble, so it’s possible he gets some play time as a rotational DB.
Over/Under: 8 tackles
How’d He Get Here: A two star corner from Virginia, Ntantang had two other offers from Ohio and James Madison. He chose his lone Power 5 offer and came north.
Here’s his senior year highlights.

Best Beard on the Eagles: Him. It is gorgeous.
Story Time: On one of my first days when I worked for the Eagles as an equipment manager, I had not learned that there were people flying around with no regard for non-athlete life. A DB ran into me at full speed when my back was turned and sent me flying, and Atem is the one guy who helped me up and made sure I was okay. For that, I shall always have a soft spot in my heart for him.
