Colby Brewer brings rare maturity and hard-nosed edge to New Mexico’s linebacker room
Colby Brewer is a 6-foot-4, 233-pound New Mexico linebacker whose most striking differentiator is his unusual path: after years as a Navy EOD technician, he brings discipline, toughness, and a veteran mindset that shows up in practice and in the locker room. In the 2024 season, reports described him as a scout-team edge rusher who helped the Lobos prepare for opponents and served as a mentor to younger teammates. If you value physicality, maturity, and high football character, he’s a strong culture fit even if his on-field sample is still limited.
