Starters: DE Will Heldt, DE Jahiem Lawson, DT Markus Strong, DT Amare Adams

Backups: DE London Merritt, DE Darien Mayo, DE Ari Watford, DT Champ Thompson, DT Vic Burley, DT Andy Burburija
Clemson lost four defensive line starters but retained Heldt, the team’s sack leader. Lawson will play opposite of Heldt, and Oklahoma transfer Markus Strong will be a defensive tackle starter. Adams, Clemson’s top signee in the 2025 cycle, has been injured this spring but will likely slot in next to Strong.
