Justin Howard brings steady, plug-and-play size to Nicholls’ offensive line
Justin Howard is a 6-foot-2, 285-pound interior offensive lineman for Nicholls who appears on the 2026 roster as a senior, giving the Colonels a mature, experienced body in the trenches. His biggest value is reliability: he’s built for physical, inside-line work, with enough thickness to anchor against power and enough frame compactness to fit multiple OL spots. The downside? There’s no public stat line to admire, because linemen live in the messy tape room—not the box score. If you want toughness, depth, and a player who should understand the assignment, Howard is the kind of low-drama, high-discipline fit teams like having around.
