Bucknell’s 6-foot-5, 290-pound grinder brings size, contact, and upside
Gustav Steffelin is a big-bodied Bucknell offensive lineman with clear developmental upside: at 6-5 and 290 pounds, he was recruited as a player who “loves contact,” with Bucknell’s staff emphasizing his power and ability to win through the ground game in the 2024 class. In 2025, he was listed as a reserve lineman and did not see game action, while in 2024 he appeared in one game on the defensive line, so the current read is more projection than production. The fit is intriguing for a team wanting size, toughness, and coachable temperament.
