This season alone, despite a severe ankle injury that knocked him out of 1 1/2 games (OU lost both), Stutsman tallied 99 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, three sacks, two pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one interception that he returned for a touchdown against Tulsa. Stutsman also battled a sore shoulder all season.
The Windermere, FL, product's 2023 statistics were good enough to earn him First-Team All-Big 12 honors after being snubbed from the list in 2022 following a conference-high 125 tackles.
Stutsman came to OU as a 4-star recruit and appeared in 10 games as a true freshman. In his collegiate career, the 6-foot-4 junior played in 34 games with 24 starts.
