College Bio

Colossal offensive tackle joined the Chiefs as the first of the club’s two sixth-round selections (170th overall) in the 2008 NFL Draft … Was thrust into the starting lineup as a true freshman and went on to start 45 of 49 career contests at Clemson … Possesses a violent first strike at the point of contact … Large hands and long wingspan create difficulties for opposing rushers off the edge … Has the ability to learn both guard and tackle, but is expected to man the tackle position at the NFL level … Should benefit greatly from the guidance of both offensive line coach Bob Bicknell and assistant offensive line coach Joe D’Alessandris.

2007: Started all 13 games at left tackle as a senior … Earned first-team All-ACC honors for the second consecutive season … Anchored an offensive line that led the ACC in scoring at 33.1 points per game and finished second in the ACC, averaging 403.2 yards of total offense per contest … Was instrumental in the Tigers rushing attack, enabling Clemson to average 161.2 ypg.

2006: Started all 13 contests at left tackle in his junior campaign … Named first-team All-ACC … Led an offensive line that surrendered only 15.0 sacks, a mark that ranked as the third-least in the nation … Helped the Tigers boast the country’s fifth-best rushing attack at 217.8 yards per game … Played 684 total snaps, the second-highest total on the team.

2005: Opened all 12 games at left tackle as a sophomore, helping Clemson average 384.6 yards of total offense per game … Was the first Clemson offensive lineman to win ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week honors since 2001 after a stellar performance against All-America DE Mario Williams at North Carolina State (10/13).

2004: Appeared in 11 games (eight starts) at left tackle as a true freshman … Was the initial first-year freshman to be considered a full-time starter on the offensive front since ‘43 … Also became the Tigers first true freshman to start more than one game on the offensive line since ‘75 … Graduated with a degree in Health Sciences at Clemson.
