If you want to discuss underrated linebacker prospects, look no further than returning starter Tyler Thilges Tyler Thilges Tyler Thilges 6'1" | 205 lbs | LB Mankato East | 2026 MN . The well-built ILB brought down 41 tackles and 2 interceptions as a junior, a stat line that is likely to improve this fall. His tape actually bears a shocking resemblance to his teammate Logan Kleist Logan Kleist Logan Kleist 5'11" | 205 lbs | LB/RB Mankato East | 2026 State MN . Thilges, too, is a quick MLB who does a standout job of meeting ball carriers at, or very close to, the LOS. He plays a very heads-up brand of football. Rarely does he get caught in the wash when scraping from alley to alley. The Cougars’ linebacker core this fall looks like it’s going to be a dangerous one.
