DeSean Watts brings Big Ten-ready power and run-stopping juice to Washington
In the 2025 season at Sacramento State, DeSean Watts earned first-team All-Big Sky honors after starting 11 games and posting 46 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, and a pass breakup; he was also praised for a strong run-defense grade and for immediately boosting Washington’s toughness and physicality up front. He looks like a plug-and-play interior DL who wins with size, leverage, and relentless effort, plus a high-energy personality that’s popping in Montlake. If a team needs a rugged, early-down disruptor who can anchor the middle and set a nasty tone, Watts fits.
