Cole Wisniewski brings size, range, and proven turnover production to Texas Tech
Wisniewski is a 6-foot-4, 220-pound safety whose 2025 Texas Tech season showed reliable all-around production: 78 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, 2 forced fumbles, and 6 pass breakups, with PFF grading him at 80.9 overall on 667 snaps.[1][2] He stands out for his ball production and versatility, backed by a strong 2023 ballhawk season at North Dakota State, when he led all Division I players with 8 interceptions and earned first-team FCS All-American honors.[8] The main fit question is health, since he previously dealt with a season-ending foot injury in 2024, but when active he profiles as an instinctive, physical, high-effort defensive back who can help a team in coverage and run support.[14][11]
