Dayton’s Elliott Braun: big-bodied interior anchor with rising role
In the 2025 season, Elliott Braun is listed by Dayton at 6-foot-3 and 269 pounds as a redshirt junior defensive tackle, giving the Flyers a sturdy interior presence with added size from earlier seasons. Reports and roster data suggest he’s the kind of DT who matters by collapsing pockets, setting a firm run front, and doing the dirty work that doesn’t always show up in flashy box scores. The fit looks strong for a team needing a physical, dependable trench defender with developmental upside and a blue-collar edge.
