Jedd Fisch shares confidence in Washington's revamped D-line for 2026
Summary

During Big Ten Media Days, Jedd Fisch voiced strong confidence in the Washington Huskies' defensive line, which has seen significant changes ahead of the 2026 season. Following the loss of ten players due to graduation, the NFL draft, and transfers, Fisch highlighted the strengths of current players including Elinneus Davis and Derek Colman-Brusa. With returning linebackers Russell Davis and Isaiah Ward, along with young talents, Fisch believes the Huskies have a physical edge over other Big Ten programs. The goal remains to improve on last season's 12th ranking in sacks within the conference, after recording only 24 in 2025.
