Freshman LB Kingston Filo brings size, pedigree, and upside to NAU
Kingston Filo is a 2026 freshman linebacker at Northern Arizona listed at 6-1, 220 pounds, and he arrives with a reputation as a two-time Defensive Player of the Year in high school plus a 4.0 GPA—nice combo, by the way. He posted 86 tackles, 2.0 sacks, 4.0 tackles for loss, and an interception across his final two prep seasons, suggesting a steady, physical defender with range and discipline rather than just splashy highlight speed. For a team, the fit is intriguing: he looks like a high-character developmental piece with room to grow into the Big Sky grind.
