Redshirt linebacker with upside, size, and a playmaker’s high-school résumé
In the 2026 season, JT Alvis is a second-year linebacker at Troy listed at 6-foot-1, 215 pounds, after redshirting as a freshman in 2025 with no game action. His calling card is versatility and ball production: at Helena High, he posted 59 tackles, 4 interceptions, 1 fumble recovery, and 10 pass breakups across his junior and senior seasons, which hints at real coverage chops for a linebacker. He was a consensus three-star recruit and looks like a smart fit for a defense that wants instincts, range, and a little extra juice.
