Baylor football’s Gavin Byers has built a reliable reputation on and off the gridiron. Byers’ teammates know they can rely on the senior offensive lineman in position and
behind-the-scenes.

Redshirt offensive lineman Tate Williams said Byers’ special talent is that he can eat a lot, and head coach Dave Aranda wasn’t surprised to hear Byers was the primary source for a diet story.

“Gavin’s one that he’ll eat anything,” Aranda said. “And so it’s probably the reason why you’re doing the story on him.”

Standing at 6 feet, 5 inches and 318 pounds, Byers possesses an imposing frame that a typical offensive lineman at the power conference level needs.
