Terrill Hopkins is an active Gardner-Webb DL with early-season snaps and upside
In the 2026 season, Terrill Hopkins has appeared as an active rotational defensive lineman for Gardner-Webb, standing 6-foot-3 and 235 pounds as a redshirt junior from Columbia, S.C.[1][2] His current stat line is modest, but he’s already shown up in the box score with one assisted tackle against Austin Peay and one assisted tackle against Wofford, which suggests a player still carving out a bigger role.[2][3] The appeal is size, experience, and a developing frame that could fit a physical front if your team wants a blue-collar interior piece with room to grow.[1][2]
