Ryan Bee Player Issued Official Marshall Thundering Herd St Petersburg Bowl Nike XXL Therma-Fit Zip Up Hoodie

Description

Ryan Bee is a defensive lineman for the Washington Redskins. He was signed shortly after the 2019 NFL Draft as an undrafted free agent. He played college football for the Marshall Thundering Herd. Bee attended Hillsdale H.S. in Ashland, Ohio, where he was the team captain for the football and basketball teams. Bee tallied 154 tackles, 33 tackles for loss and 26 sacks along with 20 catches for 250 yards and eight touchdowns from 2012-13 and was named an Associated Press 2013 All-Ohio Division VI first team selection.

Bee spent five years at Marshall under head coach Doc Holliday’s tutelage and served as a four-year starter for the team. After taking a redshirt year as a freshman in 2014, Bee played a big role on the team in 2015 and eventually played his way into the starting role in the second half of that season. From there on out, he would start all but one game.

During his career at Marshall, Bee was an extremely consistent producer. He had at least four sacks in each of his four seasons and finished his career with 18 in total. Bee tallied 200 career tackles (56 solo), 29.5 tackles for loss, 18.0 sacks, seven pass defensed, two forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and two blocked kicks.

Bee was a big part of Marshall’s defensive success, and he helped them finish with three scoring defenses that fell in the top 27 (out of 130 teams). In his first year as a starter, the team actually allowed the 10th fewest points per game to opponents at 17.8. So, Bee obviously helped to keep up the team’s defense (which has been solid since the 2013 season) in great working order. Bee finished senior season with 36 tackles (13 solo), 7.0 tackles for loss and 4.0 sacks. He also recorded two passes defensed and two forced fumbles and Earned Conference USA first team honors.

Prior to his senior year, Bee was considered to be a potential late-round 2019 NFL draft pick, but he fell out of the draft despite his consistent production and success. He didn’t last long as an undrafted free agent, as the Redskins scooped him up and signed him to their 90-man roster.
