Big-frame Kansas linebacker with developmental upside, but still looking for a breakout
In the 2025 season, JaCorey Stewart was a 6-foot, 230-pound redshirt freshman linebacker for Kansas who appeared in four games against Wagner, West Virginia, UCF and Kansas State, with most of his action coming on special teams; Kansas’ roster notes also show he did not play in 2024. That profile says more “work in progress” than headline producer, but the body type, positional fit and special-teams willingness suggest a player with room to grow if you want a physical, depth-chart-climbing linebacker rather than an instant star.
