Versatile Tulsa DL with Pressure-Pedigree and a Growing Role
Upshaw is a 6-foot-3, 255-pound redshirt sophomore who has already logged 11 career games for Tulsa, showing a solid base as a disruptive edge/line defender with four career tackles and a tackle for loss in 2025. His calling card is that he arrived with real pass-rush upside from Marcus High School, where he posted 15 career TFL, seven sacks, and 23 QB pressures, and he’s already earned academic recognition, suggesting he brings discipline and buy-in as well as size. He looks like a useful fit for a defense that values developmental linemen with room to add impact, not just raw stats.
