Andrew Zook brings proven FCS disruption and high-upside trench value for Lindenwood
Zook is a 6'4", 283-pound defensive tackle at Lindenwood who gives the Lions a sturdy interior presence with some real production behind him: in 2025 he appeared in 12 games, made 19 tackles, had 1.5 tackles for loss, and broke up a pass, and Lindenwood’s staff has pegged him as an anchor up front for 2026. His bigger differentiator is trajectory and motor—he transferred in after a highly decorated Mercer run, and multiple evaluators have viewed him as a disruptive, assignment-sound lineman who can help a defense by eating blocks, holding gaps, and flashing enough activity to matter beyond the box score.
