Jayden Wells is a 6'2", 285-pound redshirt sophomore anchor for Southern Utah's defensive front
In the 2026 season, Jayden Wells has opened as an active rotational DL for Southern Utah and logged 3 total tackles in the opener against Weber State, showing immediate presence rather than flashy box-score volume. He fits the profile of a sturdy interior defender: big-bodied, power-built, and hard to move, with enough size to eat gaps and help stabilize the line. The upside is reliability and early-down toughness; the caveat is that the available stats suggest he’s still building toward bigger disruption numbers like sacks and tackles for loss.
