Barrett Newman brings linebacker depth, grit, and a proven football pedigree to Northwestern State
Barrett Newman is a physically built linebacker from Bossier City, listed at 6-foot-1 and 225 pounds for Northwestern State in the 2025 season, and he arrived with a strong resume from Liberty, where he was part of a 2023 Conference USA title team and earned academic honors. In the 2025 season, he appeared in 11 games and finished with 30 tackles, 0.5 tackles for loss, and a forced fumble, showing steady, assignment-sound production rather than flashy stat-padding. He looks like a fit for teams that value toughness, depth, and a player with visible competitive juice.
