Ben Rios has become a steady, high-floor anchor for UTSA’s offensive line
In the 2025 season, Ben Rios started 12 games at center for UTSA, logged 786 snaps, was charged with only five penalties, and allowed just one sack and three quarterback hits in 456 pass-blocking snaps, which is exactly the kind of quiet dominance coaches love[1]. He followed a 2024 breakout at left guard, where he started the final seven games and did not allow a sack, while helping power a UTSA offense that produced 5,865 total yards and a school-record 681 yards in one game[1]. At 6-foot-6, 295 pounds, he brings experience, versatility, and a nasty edge without the flash—ideal if a team wants dependable trench work and a leader who keeps the pocket clean[1][2].
