justus wallin - linebacker 

6'0" 230lbs 

Justus Wallin joins the Wolfpack after spending the 2025 season with the Cedar Rapids River Kings. The 6’0” 230lbs linebacker hails from the small farming community of Imperial, Nebraska. Justus is the son of Jeff and Marilee Wallin. He starred at Chase County High School not only in football, but basketball and track as well. As a fullback and linebacker, Wallin was a three-time All-League player, two-time All-District player, and played on the 2014 Western Nebraska All-Star team. He also helped lead his team to their first playoff win in seven years.  

Wallin began his collegiate career just down the road at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. From there, he made a stop at Colorado State University before landing at Bowling Green State University. Last year for the Cedar Rapids River Kings, Wallin proved his worth, averaging 10 tackles per game and totaling 15 tackles for loss.  Wallin comes from a farming family, and he credits all his time spent working on the farm for the strength and toughness he’s developed. Those traits have “made me into a professional-level football player.”
