Monte McGary brings steady, multi-game production to Utah State’s secondary
In the 2021 season, McGary played in all 14 games and made three starts, finishing with 24 tackles, 4 pass breakups, and 0.5 tackles for loss, which points to a reliable, assignment-sound safety who can stay on the field and make plays on the ball.[1] His value is less about flashy volume and more about consistency, coverage awareness, and durability—traits that fit a defense looking for a dependable rotational or starting piece in the back end.[1]
