Graduate Transfer LB with High Intensity, Limited Stats, and Texas Grit
Jeremy Evans, a 6-1, 218-pound graduate transfer linebacker from Baylor, brings relentless intensity and Texas toughness despite limited on-field stats (24 career tackles, 1 forced fumble). Though he saw action in only 4 games in 2025 (7 tackles) and 8 in 2024 (reserve role), his 2023 season showed flashes: 17 tackles, 1 forced fumble, and 1 pass breakup in 11 games. Evans entered the portal as a graduate transfer, signaling maturity and a desire for a fresh start. Ranked No. 93 LB in the transfer portal (247Sports), he’s a three-star prospect from Tenaha, TX, who was team captain and Second-Team All-State at Centennial HS. His differentiator isn’t volume stats but his graduate-level focus, physicality, and high-intensity play style—ideal for a team needing a hard-hitting, mentally mature LB who can grow into a leader. Injury history is clean; personality is driven and team-oriented. He’s a good fit for teams valuing grit over flash.
