Blake Lauritzen is a young Northern Arizona linebacker with a real upside swing
Lauritzen is an early-career Northern Arizona linebacker who made his collegiate debut in 2024 and logged a solo tackle against Lincoln, so the sample is still tiny but the staff has already trusted him to see the field. The key appeal is projection: he brings fresh, developing depth at a physical position, and his value will come from how quickly he grows into a dependable run defender and special-teams contributor rather than from headline stats right now.
