Wasrabi "Warpath" Gleel (born May 15, 2016) is an American football linebacker who is currently preparing to enter the professional ranks.He played college football for Dartmouth before being taken with the 58th pick in the 2040 ISFL Draft (S25) by the Minnesota Grey Ducks.

Early years

Wasrabi Gleel was born in Lebanon, NH, on May 15th, 2016 to Debbie and Donnie Gleel. As a single child, Wasrabi spent a lot of time alone in the woods behind his childhood home. It was there that his love of weightlifting was born, as he'd often wrestle with large rocks and fallen timbers. At Windsor High School, he was a stand-out athlete, both on the football field and the track field where he dominated the shot-put throw. In his four years as a Windsor Yellow Jacket, the Jackets made it to the Division III championship every year, and took home the championship two of those four appearences. In his final game as a Yellow Jacket, Wasrabi scored his first and only offensive touchdown of his career, when coach Bob Hingston put him in as the TE2 following an injury to the starting tight end, Rip Chick. Wasrabi remains active in his community today, and his love for his hometown influenced his decision to play across the Connecticut River at Dartmouth College.

College career

As a freshman, Wasrabi became an immediate contributor to Dartmouth's Big Green defense, posting an astonishing 13 sacks and 6 forced fumbles his rookie season with the team. Due to his size and power, in addition to playing primarily as a run-stopping lineback, Dartmouth Coach Buddy Teevens also utilized Wasrabi all over the defensive line, from pass-rushing DE, to occasional work on the inside as a gap-plugging DT. A training camp injury held him out of the first four games of his sophomore season, but he bounced back with authority, posting a career best 5 sack performance against Cornell in his much-anticipated return game. He made his biggest statement game as a junior during an Ivy League rivalry game between Dartmouth and Harvard, coming up with a game-sealing sack-strip and return for his first collegiate defensive touchdown. He finished his career with 180 tackles, including a school, career-record 66.5 tackles for losses, and 47 quarterback sacks, 19 forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, one interceptions, and six passes deflected, and was recognized as a unanimous first-team All-American his senior season.

Professional career

Gleel burst onto the DSFL scene as an immediate contributor for the Ducks linebacking corps. Thrust into the middle linebacker position, he excelled as a run-stopper while wreaking havoc in the opponent's backfield. In his first four games he posted three sacks and a crucial goal line interception against the Norfolk Seawolves. As the season progressed, Gleel established himself as one of the premier rookie Linebackers of the S24 group, and by the end of the season he eclipsed the respectable benchmark of 100 tackles in a season. When asked about his thoughts on the season, Gleel remained humble in saying that his impact exceeded his own expectations, and while he’d like to have seen the Ducks win a few more games, he was honored to be a member of the squad.

Behind the scenes, Gleel was contacted by the Totino’s Pizza Roll company due to his habit of consuming an entire 50 count bag of pizza rolls before every game. This partnership led to a lucrative sponsorship deal, as well as monthly coupons good for free pizza rolls. He’s currently in talks with the Food Network on beginning a new show called “Grilling with Gleel,” where he promises to cook food that doesn’t just come from the freezer, but is in fact old Gleel family recipes like 2 hour baby back ribs, and vegan chickpea curry.

Gleel often likes to remark about how there are no Power Linebackers in the ISFL, and has made a solemn vow to become the strongest Linebacker in ISFL history. He remains open to playing out of position as an edge rushing Defensive End, but is adamant about remaining a Linebacker for as long as he can.

A media favorite, Gleel is often interviewed by a bevy of ISFL reporters, most notably Pam Pringle, who has been following Gleel’s career since he was a Season 24 DSFL prospect.

S33: Season 33 would mark a significant change in the career of Gleel. After playing the entirety of his career in the Linebacker position, Gleel realized he was too slow to keep up with the new younger players in the league, and decided to bulk up in order to make a change to playing Defensive End. This experiment would pay big dividends for the Chicago Butchers, who saw their newest DE lead all their Defensive Lineman in sacks with 10. This season would be good enough for Gleel to make the 2nd Team All Pro squad, but the Wasrabi Gleel DE experiment would inevitably have to come to a close. After the trade deadline, Gleel held a press conference where he told reporters that it would be his last ride in the ISFL. The retirement announcement helped to spurr Chicago to an unlikely playoff spot after skidding on a 4 game losing streak. Unfortunately for Gleel, the Chicago Butchers were bounced out of the first round in the playoffs by the eventual Ultimus champions, the Baltimore Hawks. Gleel never did win a single playoff game in his career, DSFL or ISFL, and though he had a solid career, he left the league thinking about what might have been.
