Tyler Erkman brings splash-play potential and special-teams edge to North Dakota
In the 2024 season, Tyler Erkman emerged as a high-impact safety for North Dakota, starting 11 games and finishing with 31 tackles, 1 interception, 3 pass breakups, and 2 fumble recoveries; he also blocked a punt and earned Phil Steele Fourth Team Freshman All-American honors. His profile stands out for versatility, run support, and knack for creating momentum-shifting plays, which makes him more than a box-score defender. If a team wants a tough, active back-end piece who can help on special teams and tilt hidden-yardage battles, Erkman absolutely fits the bill.
