experienced, physical OSU linebacker who earned his shot the hard way
Lamont Bishop’s calling card is toughness and steady progression: Oklahoma State’s roster listed him at 6-2, 230 as a redshirt senior, and the Cowboys’ bio says he steadily earned more playing time after arriving as a junior-college transfer. In the 2022 season, he played all 13 games, started the bowl game, and finished with 29 tackles, ranking ninth on the team; ESPN’s season log also shows 29 total tackles, 17 solo stops, and 1 forced fumble. He’s the kind of veteran defender coaches trust for physical run support, but he’s not a flashy stat-sheet monster—more reliable, more seasoned, and quietly useful.
