2023 Football Roster

Go To Coaching Staff

NOTE: Due to the spread of the novel coronavirus COVID-19, the 2020 football season was moved to the Spring 2021 semester and all participating student-athletes retained their year of eligibility from the NCAA. Players on this roster are listed by their NCAA eligibility designation, and their experience (1L, 2L, 3L, etc.) reflects the number of years they have participated and earned a letter at Sam Houston. True freshmen and transfers are listed as HS and TR experience, respectively.
