Bowling Green’s Josh Pettus brings compact, physical DB depth with veteran size
Josh Pettus is a 5-foot-9, 197-pound senior defensive back for Bowling Green in the 2026 season, giving the Falcons an experienced, built-for-contact secondary option[1]. His appeal is less about flashy stat lines and more about reliable depth: veteran presence, physicality, and the kind of compact frame that suggests he can handle the grind of special teams and rotational defensive work. If you want a tough, steady defensive back who fits a blue-collar program identity, Pettus is the kind of under-the-radar piece that can quietly matter[1].
