Nate Blanc is a big freshman DT with early depth-chart buzz
In the 2026 season, Nate Blanc is a 6-2, 290-pound freshman defensive tackle from Quebec City who is already listed on Marshall’s depth chart as the No. 2 DT behind Cam Chmura, which is a nice early sign for a young interior lineman[1][2]. He’s the kind of nosey, space-eating freshman who can compete for snaps right away because of his size and upside, but his current profile is still developing with no meaningful stat line yet[2][3]. If you want a developmental body with early rotation potential, Blanc is worth a look; if you need a proven playmaker today, the résumé is still pretty light[1][3].
