Freshman DB Tiago Mendes brings size, speed, and developmental upside to Presbyterian
Tiago Mendes is a 2026 freshman defensive back for Presbyterian listed at 5'10", 205 pounds and active on the Blue Hose roster, with his current public profile showing no recorded game stats yet this season. He’s intriguing because that frame gives him a physical DB profile that can translate to run support and press work, while his status as a freshman means the ceiling is still wide open. The key question isn’t flash—it’s whether his effort, toughness, and learning curve turn that upside into snaps.
