Personal Life
Riley Pettijohn, the son of former Syracuse All-American defensive lineman Duke Pettijohn, spent the early part of his sporting career playing safety and staring on the basketball court. But he made the move to linebacker ahead of the 2022 season and it paid off, as he racked up more than 30 scholarship offers before his junior season at McKinney High. "Being switched to a new position, it was hard," he said. "But we worked through it. I kept working hard at all the little things. I grew some and added weight (30 pounds). It was the right move. I like being a thorn in the side of offenses. I like to fly around and just make plays."
