Texas A&M edge rusher Anto Saka has been included in The Athletic's 2026 "Freaks List," an annual compilation highlighting college football's most exceptional athletes, as announced by the school on Monday. Bruce Feldman characterized Saka as the standout among a talented defensive line group, according to the athletics department.
Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 255 pounds, Saka, who wears No. 14, is a graduate student from Baltimore and transferred to College Station from Northwestern. He is joined in the defensive line by Sam M'Pemba, a redshirt junior from Georgia, who measures 6-foot-3 and weighs 257 pounds.
The Freaks List features remarkable athletic testing statistics in college football, compiled from reports by strength coaches and programs. It emphasizes raw physical talent rather than performance, allowing players to be recognized before they have participated in games with their new teams. Texas A&M did not specify Saka's position on the list.
This list was released as the Aggies are in the midst of Fall Camp, with their season opener scheduled for September 5 at Kyle Field.
