Two Freshmen Defensive Linemen Shine | Washington Huskies Football News

Two elite freshmen defensive linemen, Derek Coman-Brusa and Ramzak Fruean, are already making waves for the University of Washington — not as backups, but as starters who switched positions to suit their strengths. Coman-Brusa, a local edge rusher turned defensive tackle, has bulked up to 295 pounds, while Fruean, a linebacker-turned-edge-rusher, added 20 pounds and now weighs 235. Their maturity, adaptability, and physical growth impress coach Ryan Walters, who sees them as game-changers ready to dominate. And they’re not alone — UW’s roster also boasts a potentially fastest QB, quickest LB, and best punter in the nation. These two rookies aren’t just playing; they’re side-by-side, poised to leave a legacy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
