Jared Massay is a tackling-first CCSU linebacker with room to climb
In the 2025 season, Jared Massay showed up as a sturdy Central Connecticut State linebacker at 6-foot-2, 225 pounds, producing 6 tackles, 3 solo stops, and 1 tackle for loss across the year while staying active in the rotation.[1][5][13] His appeal is the pro-style frame and linebacker build, with enough size to hold up against the run and a clear baseline of production, but the numbers also suggest he’s still developing into a bigger-impact defender rather than a proven playmaker.[1][7][8] For a team seeking a physical, junior linebacker who can fit the run and grow into more responsibility, he’s a sensible depth-and-development bet.[1][3][15]
