Utah walk-on DB with special-teams grit and steady utility
In the 2012 season, Mike Kirby was a Utah walk-on safety who played in four games, mostly on special teams, and was listed as the backup snapper in spring ball[1][2]. At 5-foot-11 and about 200 pounds, he brought a tough, versatile profile: an all-state, all-conference running back in high school, plus defensive production with 22 tackles, three sacks, two tackles for loss, and an interception[1][2]. He looks like the kind of under-the-radar roster piece coaches trust for reliability, effort, and niche value more than headline stats[1][2].
