Reliable WKU linebacker, special-teams grinder with veteran polish
Nathan Griffin brings 2026-ready value as a 6-foot-1, 229-pound redshirt junior who has been a steady part of Western Kentucky’s rotation, appearing in all 14 games in the 2024 season, mostly on special teams. His calling card is not flash; it’s trust, toughness, and doing the dirty work every staff loves. He also has a strong high-school production profile, including 182 career tackles and eight sacks at East Central HS. If you want a dependable, lower-maintenance linebacker who competes hard and can help in multiple phases, Griffin fits the bill.
