LB Dylan Rosiek

Despite primarily serving as a special teams player as a freshman, Rosiek will assume more important duties in 2023. He led Illinois in tackles with 8 vs. Toledo, including one for loss. The 6-foot-1, 230 lbs linebacker is a powerful force up the middle who needs to wreak havoc on the Kansas football run game.
