Gavin Jones brings rare size and developmental upside to NMSU’s offensive line
Gavin Jones enters the 2026 season as a 6-6, 315-pound sophomore offensive lineman at New Mexico State, and the clear selling point is his frame: length, mass, and the kind of physical profile that can turn into a problem for edge rushers. NMSU’s roster bio says he adds “size and physicality” to the Aggie line, while his freshman year in 2025 featured no game appearances, so this is more projection than production right now. He looks like a developmental fit for a team that values upside, toughness, and patience.
