Veteran LB with Breakout Tackling Punch in Final Gopher Year
Sixth-year senior Jeff Roberson transferred to Minnesota from Oklahoma State in Jan 2025 with one year left, bringing proven disruption after a stellar 2024: 58 tackles, 8.5 TFLs, 3 sacks in 12 games—his career high post-2022 injury miss[1]. At 6-2/230, he's a sideline-to-sideline tackler with special teams reliability and academic excellence (First Team All-Big 12, 2023/2021), blending blue-collar intensity and football IQ. Care because he's a low-risk, high-motor finisher eyeing the 2026 Draft; perfect fit for teams needing versatile, battle-tested LB depth without the freshman bust risk[1][8].
