Austin Peay’s Xavier Ellison brings size, junior experience, and depth-chart value at linebacker
Xavier Ellison is listed on Austin Peay’s 2026 roster as a 6-foot-1, 222-pound junior linebacker, and that frame plus veteran status makes him a useful fit for a defense that wants a sturdy, trustworthy presence in the box[1][2]. He’s not tagged with public stat-leader buzz right now, so the clearest takeaway is the profile: a physically reliable, active defender with enough size to take on run gaps and enough experience to compete for rotational or starting snaps if he keeps trending upward[1][2].
