Carson Keach is becoming Northern Colorado’s reliable linebacker glue guy
In the 2026 season, Carson Keach has already shown he’s the kind of linebacker coaches trust: he’s active, assignment-sound, and willing to do the dirty work, as shown by his six-tackle outing against South Dakota and his steady rise from special-teams contributor to regular defensive piece. Northern Colorado lists him as a junior LB/DB hybrid at 6-3, 225, and his value is less about splash plays than consistency, toughness, and versatility. If you want a defender who brings effort, depth, and a no-nonsense edge, Keach looks like a smart fit.
