Miami is getting a big body back on the defensive line.
Defensive lineman Ahmad Moten will return for the 2026 season, giving the Hurricanes a proven piece up front. The South Florida native has been a steady part of Miami’s defensive line, helping both against the run and getting after the quarterback.
InsideTheU was first to report the news.
Moten, who stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 325 pounds, finished last season with 31 tackles and 4.5 sacks. Over three seasons at Miami, Moten has put up 51 total tackles and 5.5 sacks, plus an interception in 2023.
His return gives Miami experience and size in the middle of the defensive line heading into 2026.
