Colgate’s veteran trench enforcer with award-winning production
In the 2012 season, Chris Horner was a force for Colgate at defensive tackle, starting all 12 games and leading the defensive line with 38 total tackles, 21/2 sacks, and a team defensive MVP award[2][5]. He looks like the kind of interior lineman coaches love: durable, disruptive, and reliable enough to anchor a front for four quarters[2][5]. If you need a tough, high-motor DL who can hold up against the run and create occasional backfield chaos, Horner fits the bill; if you want a splashy, edge-only speed specialist, he is not that guy[2][5].
