Josh Lezin brings veteran size and interior power to Maine’s defensive front
In the 2026 season, Josh Lezin profiles as a sturdy, experienced graduate-student defensive lineman for Maine at 6-1, 300, giving the Black Bears a big-bodied interior presence with the frame to hold the point and absorb double teams.[1] He’s the kind of fit-you-feel type rather than a stat-sheet showoff: his value is in leverage, toughness, and veteran reliability, which is especially useful for a defense that needs trench stability.[1][2]
