Savali Talalemotu brings veteran edge and interior toughness to Portland State’s line
Savali Talalemotu has the look of a classic tone-setter in the trenches: a long-time Portland State defensive tackle who earned honorable mention all-conference recognition in 2016 after starting every game and finishing that season with 22 tackles, 2 sacks, a fumble recovery, and a blocked kick. His calling card has been versatility, durability, and disruptive leverage—he has played both end and tackle, logged 44 career games with 21 starts, and built a reputation as a reliable, high-motor defender who can survive the grind inside. If your team wants a battle-tested interior lineman who brings effort, experience, and legit pass-rush flashes, he fits.
