Jalen Ortiz brings proven versatility to Wyoming’s linebacker room
Ortiz is a senior transfer who has earned the top spot at SAM linebacker and nickel for Wyoming, which says a lot about his versatility and trustworthiness in the Cowboys’ defense.[1] At 5-foot-10 and 196 pounds, he profiles as a compact, active defender who can move around and help in multiple sub-packages rather than just stack-and-shed in a traditional role.[1] He’s a fit for a team that values experience, flexibility, and a player who can contribute immediately on the outside and in coverage.
