Pitt all-ACC DE granted a sixth year of eligibility

BY foxsports • February 3, 2016

On a day that’s all about trying to land prized high school prospects, the biggest news out of Pitt on National Signing Day centered around the return of all-ACC defensive end Ejuan Price.

Price, who ranked third in the ACC in both sacks (11.5) and tackles for a loss (19.5) in 2015 was granted a sixth year of eligibility by the NCAA on Wednesday.

The six-foot, 250-pound pass rusher has a history of injuries beginning in 2012 when he missed the entire season with a pectoral injury. In 2013, Price sat out the last seven games of the year with a back injury and was sidelined for all of the 2014 season with a chest muscle injury.

In 2015, Price was a force for the Panthers as he tallied a career-high 48 tackles and forced and recovered one fumble.
