Gio Andrade brings mass and size to UAPB’s interior
In the 2026 season, Gio Andrade is listed at 6-0, 305 pounds and appears on Arkansas-Pine-Bluff’s roster as a redshirt freshman defensive tackle, a profile that points to a classic run-stuffing interior presence rather than a flashy stat-sheet star.[14][5] The clear appeal is body control and point-of-attack power: if a staff wants a young DT who can eat space, hold gaps, and make life uglier for guards, Andrade fits the mold. Published stat pages currently show no meaningful career production, so the real question is upside, development, and how quickly that frame translates into disruptive snaps.[8][1]
