veteran San Jose State guard with early-season starting experience
Keith Bendixen entered San Jose State’s 2014 season as the top option at right guard after playing in 18 games heading into his senior year, signaling a reliable, game-tested interior lineman the staff trusted to stabilize the line.[2] At 6-foot-4 and 291 pounds, his value is in dependability and role-fit rather than flash: he brings snap experience, depth-chart credibility, and the kind of steady trench play that helps protect quarterbacks and create run-game consistency.[2] That makes him the type of interior lineman a team would want if it needs a composed, experienced guard rather than a developmental project.[2]
