Logan Gross brings developmental upside to NIU’s offensive line
Gross is a **6-foot-4, 296-pound** offensive lineman at Northern Illinois who enters 2026 as a **redshirt sophomore** with no official college game stats yet, but he already carries a solid in-game profile: EA Sports rates him **67 overall** with standout marks in **strength (82)**, **pass blocking (74)**, and **lead blocking (80)**. His appeal is straightforward—he looks like a physically mature, technically promising tackle who can help in the run game and give a staff a projectable, competition-ready body. For teams, he fits as a developmental line piece with size, power, and room to grow.
