Collin Ansel is a steady, rising edge presence for Dayton
In the 2025 season, Dayton listed Collin Ansel as a senior defensive end, and he was recognized with Phil Steele Fourth Team All-PFL honors, while Dayton’s spring update said he and Mirko Jaksic “will be mainstays” on the defensive line and that both had “very solid springs.” Ansel has the frame and sturdiness coaches like at 6-foot-1, 246 pounds, plus enough consistency to earn a bigger role after appearing in 11 games and posting 12 tackles in 2024. He looks like a dependable fit if you want effort, experience, and a player coaches trust in the trenches.
