Tyler Banks brings veteran size, special-teams grit, and Chucky Mullins-level toughness to Ole Miss
Tyler Banks is the kind of linebacker coaches love for the dirty-work stuff: in the 2025 season, he won Ole Miss’ Chucky Mullins Courage Award, has appeared in 39 games since 2022, and built his reputation as a reliable special-teams piece with 31 career tackles, including a career-best 14 in 2024. He’s a 6-foot-2, 245-pound senior who plays with physicality and staying power rather than flash, which makes him a useful depth-and-identity fit for a team that values toughness, leadership, and consistent effort.
