Background

Early life

Landman was born on 19 November 1998, in Harare, Zimbabwe, where his father, Shaun, was playing rugby union. When his family moved to the United States, they settled in Danville, California. He became a U.S. citizen during his second year of college.

He attended Monte Vista High School and played baseball, rugby union and football. Landman played wide receiver as well as linebacker earning accolades in both positions. Over his four varsity years Landman amassed over 1,000 yards receiving and made over 160 tackles, 15 sacks and 4 interceptions. In his senior year Landman led Monte Vista in a state playoff run. In his final season Landman was the East Bay Athletic League MVP. He was awarded All-NorCal High School Football Team by MaxPreps and East Bay Defensive Player of the Year by the San Jose Times. He was named to all district and state teams for his final two seasons.

Landman was ranked as the 5th best linebacker and 57th best player in California by ESPN. Scout.com had Landman as high as 2nd and 33rd.

Landman had offers from multiple major Division I programs, including Arizona, Boise State, Colorado State, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon State, Washington State, and Wyoming. Landman committed to college football at Colorado on 20 July 2016.

College career

Landman was given significant playing time as a true freshman, playing mostly special teams but also on defense. In his college debut against Texas State, Landman recorded one tackle for a loss. Later that year against Utah, Landman had six tackles and a forced fumble in a starting role. Landman came into the 2018 Colorado football season as a starter; in the first game, he made a career-high 16 tackles and had an interception against rival Colorado State. Landman continued with 13 tackles and another interception against Nebraska on national television.

Landman finished the season with 104 total tackles (64 solo), four sacks, and two interceptions. In early 2019, Landman received an All-Pac-12 Conference from the coaches and media.

Personal life

Landman has three siblings: Ty, Brendan, and Ocean. Brendan played college football at Arizona State and Ocean swam collegiately at Oregon State.

He is often referred to as the "Nateland Man" on the "Nateland" podcast, a podcast hosted by comedians Nate Bargatze, Dusty Slay, Aaron Weber and Brian Bates.
