Football fans are amazed by the size of Texas Longhorns true freshman defensive lineman and “freak of nature”, Justus Terry.
In December, Justus Terry announced his commitment to Steve Sarkisian’s Texas Longhorns after fielding offers from the Auburn Tigers and Georgia Bulldogs. Terry was listed as the No. 8 prospect on the 2025 ESPN 300 rankings, as well as the No. 2 defensive lineman behind Elijah Griffin (No. 3, committed to Georgia).
Terry shared several photos from a recent Longhorns practice on his Instagram page. And fans cannot believe how giant and shredded he is for a true freshman:

The Texas Longhorns already have one of the best pass rushing duos in the nation led by Anthony Hill Jr. and Colin Simmons, who combined for 17 sacks in 2024. Throw in the underrated Trey Moore and the arrival of Terry, and the Longhorns’ front seven once again figures to be a problem for opposing offensive linemen.
