Kode Lowe is emerging as a physical, playmaking safety for UTEP
Kode Lowe looks like a strong fit for a defense that wants a **big, active safety** with proven production and upside: the 6-1, 225-pound junior totaled **38 tackles in 2025** for UTEP after previously posting **50 tackles, two pass breakups, two fumble recoveries and an interception** in 2022 at West Florida, and UTEP notes he arrived after playing there since 2021. [1][9] His differentiators are range, contact strength, and versatility—he has lined up at nickel and safety, shown splash-play ability with a forced fumble and recovery, and was described by local coverage as an emerging difference-maker and leader for UTEP’s defense.
