From Chapel Hill to Las Vegas, UNC linebacker Amari Gainer will have the opportunity to live out his NFL dream after being one of six Tar Heels to sign after the 2024 NFL Draft concluded.
Gainer joins a rebuilding Raiders team with a plethora of collegiate experience, spending five years at Florida State University before transferring to North Carolina as a graduate student. Gainer’s stint at UNC was short, yet he produced key moments during his tenure.
Gainer finished with 27 tackles (6 for loss), 2.5 sacks, two pass deflections, and one forced fumble in his lone year with the Tar Heels. During his five-year collegiate playing year, Gainer has 237 tackles, 8.5 sacks, and six pass deflections.
