UTEP commit Justin Roberts brings college-ready size, production, and a wrestling-built edge at defensive tackle
Justin Roberts, a Smithson Valley (Texas) Class of 2026 defensive lineman committed to UTEP, stands out as a compact, powerful interior defender at roughly 6-foot-2 and 265 pounds who produced big senior-year numbers, including 79 tackles and 15 tackles for loss. He’s also been described as a multi-sport athlete and a wrestler, which usually translates to leverage, balance, and hand-fighting strength in the trenches. If you need a tough, active DL who can disrupt plays inside rather than just occupy space, he looks like a strong fit.
