Tylon Nash brings local grit and depth to Memphis’ linebacker room
In the 2025 season, Tylon Nash was mostly a special-teams and depth piece for Memphis, appearing in 12 games and logging only limited defensive snaps, but his 6-foot-2, 231-pound frame and local Memphis roots make him a sturdy, familiar fit in the Tigers’ linebacker room. He’s a redshirt senior who has stuck around through multiple roles, which usually signals reliability, buy-in, and a no-drama approach — the kind of player coaches trust even when the stat sheet stays quiet.
