Ty Vig is a rising North Dakota freshman linebacker making early tackles count
In the 2026 season, Ty Vig has already shown he can get to the ball, posting 3 tackles through North Dakota’s first two games, with production split between solo and assisted stops. The upside here is obvious: at 6-foot-5 and 236 pounds, he brings rare size to the linebacker spot and looks like a physical, ascending front-seven piece. The early stat line is modest, but for a freshman that’s a clean starting point. If a team wants length, range, and a developmental defender with real frame-driven upside, Vig is worth a close look.
