Virginia Tech’s defensive line has been strengthened through the transfer portal courtesy of the commitment of Clemson defensive tackle Jordan Williams.

Williams is 6-4, 310, and he was a 4-star recruit out of Cox High School in Virginia Beach.  He originally signed with the Tigers over the Hokies, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, and may others.  He appeared in 36 career games for Clemson, registering 41 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss and four sacks.

With Jarrod Hewitt not returning, Williams will have a great chance to step right in as a starter in Blacksburg.  He has two seasons of eligibility remaining.
