MSU Defensive Line Depth Crisis | Michigan State Spartans Football News

Michigan State’s defensive line is in serious trouble heading into the season, with key losses including Alex VanSumeren and others who ran out of eligibility. New coach Winston “DeBo” DeLattiboudere brings fresh energy and prior experience with coordinator Joe Rossi, but depth is thin. Ben Roberts, a reliable starter last year hampered by injuries, is the cornerstone — his health is critical.

Carlos Hazelwood, Mikeshun Beeler, and true freshman Hudson Aultman fill the rest — barely enough to cover the load.
