About Combs Updated Jul 31, 2026

Nevada’s Most Reliable Returning Tackler and Defensive Tone-Setter

Combs is a proven, high-volume linebacker for Nevada who led the Wolf Pack’s returning production on defense after posting 58 tackles in 2025 and 145 career stops with 2.5 sacks. He stands out more for consistency, toughness, and football IQ than flashy splash plays, and Nevada leaned on him heavily when injuries hit the linebacker room. His recruiting profile was modest, but his production and role growth show he can handle real FBS responsibility—making him a solid fit for a team that values dependable run support, instinctive play, and steady weekly output.[1][9][11]
