MISSOULA — Linebacker is often the heartbeat of the Montana Grizzlies defense, and in 2025, that looks to be the case again, as this position group is shaping up to be one of the deepest on the team.

The Griz linebackers wreak havoc and cause chaos in UM's 3-3-5 defense. It's a staple of the program, and this fall, this latest group is ready to fill in those shoes.

"We're all just dedicated to getting better every single day and united as brothers," linebacker Caleb Otlewski said. "I keep saying that just because that is in our creed. United as brothers, united as warriors, we watch over all past, present, future Griz warriors. So I just feel like everyone comes out here and we're just getting better every single day, getting inches and inches closer to that game day."
