CJ Woods is a veteran USC tight end still fighting for snaps
CJ Woods enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-2, 255-pound redshirt senior tight end at USC, giving the Trojans a physical, experienced body in the room. In 2023, he transferred from Cal Poly and did not appear in a game for USC, but he brings prior production from Pasadena City College, where he caught 6 passes for 66 yards and a touchdown in 10 games. His value is less about flash and more about toughness, reliability, and added depth—exactly the kind of grinder coaches like to keep around when the tight end room needs some grown-man energy.
