Listen trevmann, Size isnt everything for Linebacker, Coaches like playmakers! Not bodybuilders so keep in mind when ever you get the chance to get in at practice or game make plays. Playing linebacker is all about instinct, Try watching the linemen as they will tell you were the plays going everytime. ask your coach about it. As a senior i was 195 had 185 tackles 3 picks and 6 sacks and i was the smallest backer but i was always to the ball first which made me stand out to the coaches which led me to play varisty as a freshman at 170 i think it was then started my soph year.A kid your size should do this.... a good tackling tip is to have one arm around the back and scoop one leg up and the will be on there back. also dive for them if ther out of reach dont try to chase them down and tackle up high
