Purdue’s uphill-battling linebacker with real bounce-back juice
Berglund is a 6-foot-2, 230-pound Purdue linebacker who flashed in 2024 with 9 tackles, 2.0 tackles for loss, and 1.0 sack before a season-ending shoulder injury cut short his rise; in 2025, he remained a depth/teams piece while aiming for a bigger role in 2026. The draw here is effort, toughness, and versatility—he’s been used at linebacker, safety, and on special teams, and reports note he’s an Academic All-Big Ten type with a comeback story built on resilience. If you value a high-motor, coachable defender with utility and upside, he’s worth a look.
