Alaka'i Gilman brings battle-tested Utah secondary juice
Gilman’s appeal is experience plus production: in the 2024 season at Utah, he played all 12 games with 8 starts and posted 41 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 1 interception, 1 pass breakup, and 0.5 sacks. He’s a 5-foot-10, 194-pound senior safety who arrived after four years at Stanford, giving him a rare amount of high-level game reps and transfer-portal credibility. The selling point isn’t just the stat line — it’s his reliability, downhill toughness, and veteran feel in a secondary that needed grown-man stability.
