3-2-1: Breaking down the loaded Inside Linebackers room in Madison
- Mason Posa and Cooper Catalano remain Wisconsin's top inside linebackers and improved their pass-rush and coverage impact during camp, producing multiple interceptions and pass breakups.
- Thomas Heiberger is healthy after prior injury issues and looked like the most complete version of himself during fall camp, adding size and athleticism to the rotation.
- Jon Jon Kamara finished camp strongly and is part of an inside-linebacker group expected to rotate roughly four players behind leaders Posa and Catalano.
- Taylor Schaefer consistently worked with Wisconsin's second unit and forced three turnovers during open-scrimmage week, positioning himself for rotational and special-teams work.
- Former walk-on Drew Braam became a vocal leader and earned extensive second-team linebacker reps, with a backup and special-teams role expected.
