There’s Cause for Optimism

The Spartans’ pass rush is shaping up to be one of the best in the Big Ten in 2024. The Spartans return all of their top pass rushers from 2023, including All-American candidate Zion Young.

Young, a junior in 2024, led the Spartans with 7.5 sacks and 12.5 tackles for loss in 2023. He is one of the most athletic and disruptive pass rushers in the country.

Who else is back?

In addition to Young, the Spartans also return senior defensive end Jeff Pietrowski and junior defensive tackle Jalen Hunt. Pietrowski had 5.5 sacks in 2023, while Hunt had 4.0 sacks.

The Spartans also have a number of talented young pass rushers who could make an impact in 2024. Sophomore defensive end Shemar Stewart had 3.0 sacks in 2023, and redshirt freshman defensive tackle Alex VanSumeren had 2.0 sacks.

Final Thoughts

The Spartans’ pass rush is expected to be one of the best in the Big Ten in 2024. The Spartans return all of their top pass rushers from 2023, and they have a number of talented young players who could make an impact.
