Versatile Kansas State LB with special-teams juice and a rare athlete profile
Tyson Struber is a Kansas State linebacker to watch because he brings uncommon versatility: he arrived as a record-setting high school receiver and defensive playmaker, then shifted to linebacker and carved out a role on special teams for the Wildcats. In 2024, he appeared in six games mostly on kickoff, punt coverage, and punt return units, with one tackle in the opener against UT Martin. His edge is athleticism, competitiveness, and developmental upside; the question is whether his tools can translate into more defensive snaps as he grows into the position.
