FLORHAM, New Jersey (5-13-2017) -- Ex-Palomar defensive end Dylan Donahue, a NCAA Division II All-American at the University of West Georgia at the same position during the 2016 season, is immediately turning heads in the New York Jets' rookie camp/minicamp.

Connor Hughes, writing for NJ Advance Media for the NJ.com web site, had this to say about the Jets' 2017 fifth-round draft pick, who has impressed early on at outside linebacker and on special teams:

Nice practice from Dylan Donahue

Linebacker Dylan Donahue, whom the Jets drafted in the fifth round, stole the show Saturday.

Donahue waws facing rookie tackle Amadou Konte, a tryout player from Benedictine.

By my count, Donahue had two sacks. The first he gave an outside look, which caught Konte off balance. Donahue then shot inside for a sack. On the secondk, he ran Konte over with a bull rush. After each play, Donahue got up screaming and flexing. He's an intense guy with a hecuva back story."
