Massive 6'5", 335-lb UAB OL Freshman Poised for 2026 Breakout After Injury Setback
Redshirt sophomore Jaden Ligon brings elite size and **strength (88 rating)** to UAB's line as a right tackle, with solid pass block (69) and run block power (78) per EA CFB 26 ratings—perfect for mauling defenders in the run game[3]. Missed all 2024 games due to injury but logged just 2 snaps in 2026 so far, earning a C grade and showing untapped potential from his high school days anchoring LaGrange's playoff squad[5][7][8]. Why care? This raw, tough Georgian (81 toughness) could develop into a NFL pipeline beast; ideal fit for teams needing physical, high-upside depth without snap-count baggage[1][6].
