Shakaun Bowser gives UTEP a long, disruptive edge on the line
In the 2025 season, Shakaun Bowser logged 23 tackles, 3.0 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, a fumble recovery, and a quarterback hurry for UTEP, and he’s listed again in 2026 as a projected starter at defensive end. At 6-foot-5 and 255 pounds, he brings length, edge-setting power, and enough burst to finish plays—solid traits for a DL who fits best in a rotation that values discipline and disruption. His 2026 camp buzz is more about reliability and role value than splashy star hype, but that’s exactly the kind of glue-piece edge presence coaches love.
