Jeremy Newberry is considered one of the next dominant offensive lineman in the National Football League. Jeremy’s playing style is notable for his incredible physical ability and mental attitude, which led former 49ers director of player personnel Vinnie Cerrato to use words like "tough" and "nasty" to describe him. Some television personalities say that Jeremy is a throwback to the old days and is often compared to twelve time pro bowler Mike Webster of the Pittsburgh Steelers. At only 22 years of age Newberry’s future is very bright and he should see himself in the pro bowl for many years to come.
