Citadel DL Dwayne Bryant Jr. brings size, developmental upside, and local-talent grit
Dwayne Bryant Jr. is a 6-foot-1, 300-pound defensive lineman from Chadbourn, North Carolina, who saw game action for The Citadel in the 2024 season and entered 2025 as a freshman with clear room to climb the depth chart. He stands out for his compact power and interior size, the kind of frame that can hold up against Southern Conference line play, and his story has real local-heart appeal. The takeaway: he looks like a developmental fit for a defense that values toughness, leverage, and blue-collar consistency.
