Veteran, versatile, and still climbing: McKel Broussard gives Eastern Washington grown-man stability at safety
In the 2025 season, McKel Broussard was a steady veteran presence for Eastern Washington, starting all 12 games, finishing with 45 tackles, 6 pass breakups, and his first career interception; he also opened 2026 spring work with three tackles. He’s the kind of safety coaches love: experienced, assignment-sound, and physical enough to support the run while still making plays in coverage. The extra sauce is his maturity—an academic honor-roll track record, FBS experience from UTEP, and a clear reputation as a student of the game. If your team wants a reliable back-end communicator who raises the floor, he fits.
