Alex Valbuena gives Jackson State a battle-tested interior anchor
Valbuena arrives at Jackson State as a fifth-year offensive lineman with real FCS experience, including 400+ snaps at Tennessee State in 2024 and a move into JSU’s 2026 starting center role. He’s valued for versatility, toughness, and the kind of trench consistency coaches love: he has played guard and center, earned all-state honors in high school, and brings proven durability after multiple college seasons. For a team that wants a steady, experienced line piece who can help stabilize protection and run-game execution, he fits the bill.
