Out of high school, Zilinskas was ranked as a 5.4, two-star prospect and committed to Colorado over offers from the likes of Colorado State, Kansas State, Nevada and Utah State.
In his first season with the Buffaloes in 2023, Zilinskas appeared in seven games as a true freshmen playing mostly center, but also played some left tackle due to injuries. This past season, he assumed the starting center role from day one and kept that role all season long.
According to PFF, he finished with an overall grade of 59.5, a pass block grade of 61.8 and a run block grade of 65.1. Zilinskas has two years of eligibility along with a redshirt remaining to play for the Scarlet Knights.
