Summary

Biography

After an outstanding spring, Cox will be a starting fullback again this season. Like a coach on the field, he has a firm grasp of what the team is trying to do and knows every position's responsibility. He makes few mental mistakes and plays to his physical limits, quietly leading by example. Cox is the prototypical Bloomsburg Husky: selfless, hard working, enthusiastic, and physical. His brother Mike Cox is a running back for the Kansas City Chiefs.
