Duke Blue Devils Rebuild Defensive Line for 2026 Season
Duke University’s football program is turning its attention to a defensive overhaul as the 2026 season approaches. Head coach Manny Diaz and his staff have been busy in the transfer portal, seeking to replace the talent that departed for the NFL Draft and other programs. Among the returning pieces is redshirt junior linebacker Kendall Johnson, who has battled injuries but is now viewed as a cornerstone of the front seven. Coaches describe Johnson as an established veteran within the program, noting his 3‑star high school rating and the promise he has shown despite setbacks. The Blue Devils’ offensive unit is expected to take a step back, meaning the defense will carry a larger share of the workload if the team hopes to replicate the nine‑win campaign it enjoyed in 2024. With a deep linebacker corps and a revamped secondary, Duke believes the rebuilt defense can once again be the engine that drives success on the field.
