Utah Tech’s 245-lb Freshman LB with Elite Size and Two-Time All-State Pedigree
Jackson Griffiths, a 6-3, 245-lb freshman outside linebacker for Utah Tech Trailblazers, stands out as the lone two-time first-team all-state pick in his linebacker corps, bringing rare size and intensity that statistics alone can’t capture. Unlike typical freshmen, he’s a former camp attendee with 80+ high school tackles and a reputation for relentless pursuit and sideline-to-sideline coverage. His personality is marked by quiet confidence and a mission-driven mindset (having served an LDS Church mission), fueling an intensity level that coaches describe as ‘next-level.’ With no injury history and a natural fit for teams needing a physical, versatile LB who can cover, tackle, and lead, Griffiths is a high-upside prospect worth watching for the 2025 season.
