Jake Mason’s stock is rising in Missoula: disruptive depth piece with special-teams punch
In the 2025 season, Jake Mason emerged as a real difference-maker for Montana, appearing in all 15 games and posting 26 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 2 passes defended, and a quarterback hurry, while also blocking a PAT and earning Big Sky Special Teams Player of the Week honors in 2026. He’s a sturdy 6-2, 265-pound DL with a high-motor, play-through-the-whistle style, and the kind of versatile edge/line value coaches love. If you want a physical, assignment-sound front-seven piece who can wreck timing on special teams, he’s absolutely worth caring about.
