Thomas Nusbaum Thomas Nusbaum 6'1" | 191 lbs | TE Northridge | 2028 State IN is a solid receiving tight end for Northridge who flashes good hands in traffic, high-points the ball and wins one-on-one battles. Nusbaum finishes forward on contact, and as a run blocker he flashes strength to be able to latch onto defenders and drive them off the ball.

Nusbaum jumped onto the scene at the Stock Up Showcase this past winter and has continued to improve and look the part. He’s a fairly good athlete who is much smoother than defenses would expect. He’s got soft hands and can break tackles after the catch. He has experience on the defensive side of the ball, which always helps in how you see the field as an offensive player. He strikes me as someone smart who learns quickly, and could very well be an absolute steal when everything is said and done for the 2028 class.
