College Years: Kyle Fuller played his college ball at Virginia Tech and had 4 very productive years for the Hokies.  His physical style of play made him an instant contributor and he saw action in 12 games as a true freshman in 2010 and started 6.  That season, he tallied 32 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, deflected 6 passes and forced 1 fumble.  In 2011 as a sophomore, he started all 14 games and recorded 65 tackles, a whopping 14.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, 7 passes deflected, 2 interceptions and 1 fumble forced.  He was also a second-team All-ACC selection that season.  During his junior season in 2012, Fuller again started every game for the Hokies (13) and was credited with 52 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 5 pass deflections, 2 interceptions and 1 forced fumble.  Despite missing 4 games after undergoing surgery for a sports hernia in late November, Fuller was a third-team All-ACC selection as a senior in 2013.  In 9 games worth of action, he posted 24 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 10 passes broken up, 2 interceptions, 1 forced fumble and also blocked a punt.
