Rex Salas brings wrestler toughness and local-star upside to Idaho State’s offensive line
Rex Salas is a 2026 sophomore offensive lineman at Idaho State at 6-foot-4 and about 301 pounds, with local roots in Rexburg and a reputation for physical, technically sound blocking[2][3][8]. In his 2025 season, he redshirted and had no game stats recorded, so the intrigue is more about projection than production right now[3][4][9]. The biggest differentiator is his championship-level wrestling background — he won Idaho’s 6A heavyweight title without giving up a point — which hints at balance, leverage, and a nasty competitive edge that coaches love in the trenches[3][6][14].
