It didn't take long for Derek Colman-Brusa to permanently settle on playing college football with his older brother.

Ten months after Lowen Colman-Brusa committed to the Washington Huskies, Derek - the No. 1 prospect in Washington in the class of 2026 - announced Sunday he was joining the same program out of Kennedy Catholic in Burien.

But unlike Lowen, who signed as an offensive lineman, Derek - a ferocious, tireless, technically-skilled four-star pass rusher - will come in as a defensive end.

Derek Colman-Brusa will take his official visit to Montlake on May 30.

Last season as a junior, Colman-Brusa had 68 tackles in 12 games, including 30 tackles for loss. He also 13 sacks and blocked three PAT kicks.
