Charles Perkins brings proven FCS disruption and interior toughness to Tarleton State
Perkins is a battle-tested defensive lineman with real production: in 2024 at UT Martin, he posted 40 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and first-team all-conference honors, building on Freshman All-American recognition in 2023. He stands out for his run-defense strength, active hands and motor, with scouting notes highlighting elite run defense and disruptive interior play.
