Background

Early life

Armstrong attended North Shore Senior High School, Galena Park ISD in Houston, Texas, where he played defensive end. As a junior, he was named second-team All-District. As a senior, he received first-team All-district honors. He also played basketball.

College career

A 3-star defensive end recruit, Armstrong accepted a football scholarship from the University of Kansas, committing to Kansas over offers from California, Indiana, Iowa State, Michigan State, Purdue, and Texas Tech, among others. As a freshman, he appeared in all 12 games and started the last 5 contests at defensive end. He registered 23 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks (second on the team), and 4 passes defensed (second on the team).

As a sophomore, he had a breakout season as the starter at left defensive end. He led the team and was second in the conference with 10 sacks, the most by a school player since 2008. He posted 56 tackles (fifth on the team), 20 tackles for loss (fifth in school history), 5 quarterback hurries, 3 forced fumbles, and 2 fumbles recoveries. He had a career-high 11 tackles (3 for loss), 2 sacks, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery against the University of Texas.

As a junior, his role in the defense changed and his production regressed. He made 63 total tackles (third on the team), 9 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, 7 quarterback hurries, 4 passes defensed, 3 forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery. On January 3, 2018, he announced that he would forgo his senior year to enter the 2018 NFL draft. He finished his career with 142 tackles and 15.5 sacks.
