Jaylon Stone brings run-stopping size and disruptive instincts to Vanderbilt’s defensive line
Stone is a thick, physical interior lineman who gives Vanderbilt a dependable run defender with enough pop to create negative plays, as shown by his 2025 season line of 22 tackles, 2.0 tackles for loss, 1 forced fumble, and 2 passes defended.[4][5][15] At 6-foot-2 and about 306 pounds, he profiles as a tough, high-effort interior piece rather than a flashy stat producer, with scouting-style ratings that back up his power, block-shedding, and pursuit as strengths.[4][6] If your team wants a sturdy, experienced DL who can hold the point and make the occasional disruptive play, he fits.
