Anquin Barnes Jr. brings rare size, real experience, and a quietly disruptive interior presence
In the 2025 season, Anquin Barnes Jr. played in Colorado’s rotation as a 6-foot-5, 340-pound defensive tackle, finishing with 22 tackles and showing the kind of mass and leverage that can clog gaps and force offenses to account for him on every snap. He arrived with four-star pedigree from Alabama and has been praised for a surprising first step after a major body transformation, dropping significant weight to become more active and explosive. He’s not a flashy stat monster, but if a team wants interior size, toughness, and developmental upside, he’s a fit.
