The first team was highlighted by four Rams.
FORT COLLINS - Eight Rams accounted for nine selections on Pro Football Focus' Preseason All-Mountain West team including four first-team selections, the second-most of any team in the league.
Wide receiver Tory Horton, defensive backs Jack Howell and Chigozie Anusiem, and defensive end Mohamed Kamara led the Rams on the first team. The three defensive Rams were the most by any team on the first-team defensive squad.
Horton, Howell, and Kamara also previously earned preseason All-Mountain West honors as voted on by the Mountain West media ahead of the 2023 season.
On the second team, defensive back Ayden Hector was named to the FLEX slot, while wide receiver Justus Ross-Simmons, defensive lineman Grady Kelly, defensive back Henry Blackburn, and Horton (as a return specialist) were named to the third team.
Colorado State begins the 2023 season at home hosting Washington State on Saturday, Sept. 2. Kick is set for 5 p.m., and a limited number of tickets remain available for the contest as the program aims to sell out the home opener.
