Jack Howell remains CSU’s tone-setting veteran in the secondary
In the 2024 season, Jack Howell was a durable, high-volume defensive back for Colorado State, pairing 84 total tackles with 5 pass breakups and a team-leading presence that had already earned him Freshman All-American recognition earlier in his career.[1][2][3] What makes him matter is the combo of instinct, toughness, and proven production: he has consecutive 100-tackle-caliber seasons in his résumé, brings senior leadership, and has long been viewed as a defense-first tone setter rather than just a stat collector.[2][3]
