–Defensive Tackle–

Justin Kirkland, TR DT, 6-4, 330 pounds, Roy, Utah, Utah Tech

Sean Ellertson USA TODAY Sports
Justin Kirkland (55)

Date Committed: 1/6/2023

Accomplishments: High School: Was a four-year varsity letter winner in football and a three-time all-region selection at both offensive and defensive line earned All-State honors at both OL and DL as a senior team captain in 2019, was All-Conference in both 2019 and 2018, also lettered in basketball, tennis and track and field … graduated with a 3.88 GPA. 

Key Statistics: College: 2022 – 40 total tackles, 18 unassisted, 6.0 tfl, 2.0 sacks, 1 fum.rec, 3 passes defended; High School: 61 tackles, 8.0 tfl, 1.0 sack, 2 fum.caused, 1 fum. rec, and 2 blocked kicks; 2018 - 46 tackles, 6.0 tfl, 2.0 sacks; 2017 - 40 tackles, 3.0 tfl, 3.0 sacks

Scouting Report: Kirkland is a beast, and he came in and reported at 6-4, 335-pounds. In testing he promptly did 35 reps on the 225-pound bench press rep test. Here is a potentially dominating two-gap nose tackle that will get dramatic push at the line of scrimmage. He is built for what new defensive coordinator Bryan Nardo is going to want to get down there in the middle of the line of scrimmage. He is 21-years old after serving his LDS mission before beginning college. He was more than competitive than you might imagine knocking off the rust in his freshman season at Utah Tech.
