Fremont returns as a senior captain and a veteran anchor along an offensive line that yielded just 17 sacks a season ago. After a stellar junior campaign in which Fremont was an all-conference second team selection that helped the offensive line open enough holes for the running backs to average 165 yards per game, the right guard will provide significant leadership to a group that includes four other starters who have yet to complete two full seasons. Fremont was also listed as a Consensus Draft Services (CDS) Preseason player-to-watch and boasts the second-highest grade-out of any returning offensive lineman.
