Temple’s 6-6, 305-pound right tackle anchor is settling in
Diego Barajas enters 2026 as a redshirt senior and a trusted Temple starter, bringing size, experience, and stability to the Owls’ offensive line after settling in at right tackle in 2025. He was a captain in the season opener, started every game at RT, and, in 2025, allowed no sacks in 219 pass-blocking snaps after giving up four sacks in 2024—clear signs his technique and comfort level are trending up. Temple also listed him among Pro Day participants in 2026, a good indicator he remains on the radar as a mature, dependable trench player.
