About McGill Updated Aug 17, 2026

TJ McGill brings steady safety depth and special-teams edge to JMU

TJ McGill looks like a reliable, physical safety who has already proven he can handle volume: in the 2025 season at James Madison, he played in all 14 games and finished with 14 tackles, after a strong 2024 at William & Mary with 61 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, one interception, four pass breakups, and freshman All-American recognition. His appeal is less about gaudy counting stats and more about trustworthiness, experience, and versatility in the back end. If you want a hard-nosed, assignment-sound defensive back who shows up and competes, he fits the bill.
