Roberts (6-1, 250) has most recently heard from the New York Jets, Las Vegas Raiders, and Los Angeles Chargers.
As noted by Melo, Roberts recorded 4.5 sacks through eight games as a sophomore in 2020 after transferring from Maine. He added 22 tackles, six tackles for a loss, and a forced fumble as a situational defensive end, often entering the lineup in passing situations.
Melo believes Roberts could be a late-round or undrafted free agent pickup by an NFL team. The 2021 NFL Draft begins on April 29.
