Julian Marcantel brings veteran production and downhill edge to TSU’s linebacker room
Julian Marcantel is a seasoned Texas Southern linebacker who has already earned All-SWAC recognition and has been a proven tackler when healthy, including a 92-tackle season in 2019 and 83 tackles with 8.5 tackles for loss in 2018. He’s the kind of plug-and-play defender who can fit a team that wants a physical, instinctive inside presence with leadership value. The one real question is durability—reports note he has battled injuries since his earlier breakout—but when he’s on the field, he looks like a tone-setter who can clean up plays fast and bring some old-school pop.
