Texas Permian Basin’s Dwayne Wingfield brings size, pedigree, and early defensive upside
Wingfield enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot, 190-pound redshirt freshman safety/defensive back who already has game action under his belt, which is a nice little head start for a young defender. He arrived from San Antonio Harlan after a decorated high school run—first-team all-district, 75 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, 1 interception, and 5 touchdowns as a versatile playmaker. The appeal is his physicality, multi-phase athleticism, and willingness to do the dirty work; he looks like a developmental DB who can grow into a tough, scheme-flexible contributor.
