JD Stewart brings size, production, and edge-setting upside to UL Monroe
JD Stewart is a 6-foot-2, 240-pound redshirt junior linebacker for Louisiana-Monroe who has shown a disruptive pass-rush profile from his time at Jones College, where he posted 37 tackles, 7.0 tackles for loss, four sacks, and a forced fumble in the 2023 season. At ULM, his 2024 role was more limited, but he still saw the field in three games and finished with four tackles, while being listed on the defensive depth chart entering 2025. The appeal is his combination of length, physicality, and proven backfield impact — a good fit for a team wanting a tough, rangy front-seven piece with upside.
