Coaches Comments: Justin is one of our program’s most versatile players in that he can make major impacts in all phases of the game. He’s fast, physical, and aggressive when on the field and we are able to use him in various ways in both the run game and pass game. He doesn’t shy away from contact and has the ability to run away from defenders on offense. He dealt with some nagging injuries in 2023 but is poised for a breakout on offense, defense, and special teams in 2024. He brings us both great experience and leadership to our football program.
