Versatile, high-motor linebacker with real playmaking juice
Jeremiah McKenzie is a 6-foot-2, 195-pound redshirt freshman linebacker at Central Michigan who brings rare two-way athletic context to the position, having played quarterback and linebacker in high school while showing burst, versatility, and production on defense. His high-school profile highlights big tackle volume, disruptive plays, and even unusual special-teams impact, which points to a player with instincts, toughness, and a competitive edge rather than just size. For a defense, he looks like a developmental fit if you value speed, range, and upside in a linebacker who can grow into multiple roles.[2][1][6]
