About Linton Updated Jun 2, 2026

Steve Linton brings proven pass-rush production and disruptive edge play to Baylor

Steve Linton is a high-motor, NFL-sized edge defender who gives Baylor a real splash-play threat: in 2024, he played in nine games and posted 25 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and 3 QB hurries, showing he can affect games in more than one way. He also arrives with a track record of productivity across his career, including 30 career sacks and 161 tackles, which suggests his best value is as a disruptive, versatile front-seven piece rather than just a box-score tackler.
