Utah’s Intense LB with a Fullback’s Grit and 57 Solo Tackles
Cody Ippolito, Utah’s 6-0, 225-pound linebacker, stands out for his fullback-like intensity and fearless contact—traits that made him switch to offense briefly to help Utah’s goal-line unit. With 57 solo tackles and 2.5 sacks in his Utah tenure, he brings a rare blend of physicality and tactical awareness, having started as a Wildcat with 80 career tackles and 10.5 tackles for loss. Though ranked No. 2351 nationally (2-star), his 73–77.78 industry ratings reflect steady reliability. No major injury history is noted, and his personality is defined by grit and team-first mentality. He’s a high-fit LB for teams needing a tough, contact-ready defender who elevates in critical moments.
