Big-bodied Northern Colorado tackle with blue-collar roots
Justin Michael is a 6-foot-5, 300-pound offensive lineman who joined Northern Colorado after starting at Colorado State, and in the 2023 season he appeared in one game for the Bears[1]. His appeal is less about flashy stats and more about frame, positional size, and a transfer pedigree that suggests he can bring depth and competition to the line[1][4]. He was a three-star recruit out of Poudre High, a three-year varsity starter, and his background points to a steady, physical blocker who fits best with teams valuing toughness, academic discipline, and developmental upside[9].
