Jordan Rogers Commits to Texas Tech After Stellar D2 All‑American Season

The Pittsburg State safety joins the Red Raiders, bringing a record‑setting defensive resume.

Jordan Rogers, a standout safety who earned D2 All‑American honors in 2025, has officially committed to Texas Tech, bringing a prolific defensive résumé that includes 162 tackles, 29 pass breakups, 15 tackles for loss, 15 interceptions, 5.5 sacks and five forced fumbles from his time at Pittsburg State.

The Red Raiders, who capped a historic 11‑1 regular season with their first Big 12 Championship in program history, will now integrate Rogers into a defense that already looks poised to build on that momentum.

A Defensive Powerhouse Joins the Red Raiders

His representation will be handled by Jeff Love of The Gridiron Linc, a veteran agent whose previous stints with Texas Tech staffers Justin Johnson and Kenny Perry at Kansas, as well as a tenure as executive director of player personnel at UCF under Scott Frost, give him deep ties to both the Red Raiders and the wider college football landscape.

Rogers’ commitment underscores a recruiting trend that sees top Division II talent gravitating toward Power Five programs, a shift that could reshape depth charts and defensive schemes across the conference.

Fans and analysts alike will be watching how his skill set translates to the Big 12’s faster pace, while the university hopes his arrival will further cement its recent rise under head coach Sonny Cumbie.
