Bio

Previous College: None

Projection: Starter

Status: On Scholarship

Boston Stiverson (b. Oct. 8, 1992) is an athletic, promising young offensive lineman from Andover who probably would have started at right guard for all of 2012 had he not broken his foot shortly before the season began.

Stiverson was a bit undersized when he arrived and we were pretty deep on the offensive line in 2011, so he took a redshirt. But he's now at 312 pounds, so weight hardly is a concern at this point.

Stiverson gained valuable playing experience last year and now, along with B.J. Finney and Cody Whitehair, he's ready to be one of the anchors of the offensive line.

Watching him and Keenan Taylor battle for a starting position will be both fun and good for the team.
