This guy has pretty good size for a junior, excellent speed, and takes good angles.   Creates lots of havoc against overmatched teams, but those attributes are what you’re looking for.

The highlights show him playing a rush end more than linebacker.  South Jersey group 2 has a lot of offensive linemen that were smaller than him.

Weak competition and extremely poorly coached teams he played against. Over and over he was not even blocked.  Ran free in the backfield consistently, even when he lined up as the 4th DL.  No effort to identify him and block with a tight end, H back or RB by most teams.  When engaged by an offensive lineman, did an excellent job shedding blocks and keeping his eyes in the backfield.

Because most of his film is not him necessarily playing traditional linebacker, and the competition is weak, there are two reasons to not necessarily know what he brings to the table as a college OLB, and explain lack of offers. He could clearly play rush end in high school, can he play linebacker in college?

I would say always take a chance on speed and instincts.
