Clemson Added ‘Size, Speed, Toughness’ to Defensive Line
CLEMSON — Clemson’s defensive line will look much different in 2026.
Peter Woods, DeMonte Capehart and T.J. Parker will be playing on Sundays next season, and Stephiylan Green transferred out, leaving some gaping holes up front. That means Dabo Swinney and company had some major work to do in the transfer portal.
Over the first week of the portal window, the Tigers were active in reloading up front, landing several key pieces expected to. make immediate impacts. Oklahoma transfer Markus Strong was one of the bigger additions. He has two years left to play.
