Landen Turk brings length, production, and late-add upside to EKU’s D-line
In the 2025 season at Lincoln (Pa.), Landen Turk posted 26 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, two QB hurries, two pass breakups, and a blocked kick, then transferred to Eastern Kentucky as a 6-4, 273-pound junior defensive lineman in 2026[1][5][9]. The hook here is upside: EKU’s staff specifically highlighted his size and length, and said his best football is still ahead of him[1]. For a team looking for an active, disruptive front-line piece who can win with reach, effort, and splash-play potential—not just raw box-score volume—Turk is a smart fit[1][5].
