Dylan Escalante brings SEC-sized frame, quiet upside to UNI’s offensive line
In the 2026 season, Dylan Escalante looks like a development lineman with real intrigue: the 6-6, 310-pound junior from Surprise, Arizona brings size, length, and a background of All-District/All-Region honors from Shadow Ridge HS, plus experience at Glendale CC before joining UNI.[1][2] He has no published game stats yet, which usually means the conversation is about projection, not production—so the fit question is whether your staff wants a sturdy, coachable blocker with upside and time to grow into his frame.[1][2]
