T.J. Perine brings SEC-style size to Jacksonville State’s tight end room
T.J. Perine is a 6-foot-3, 225-pound sophomore tight end at Jacksonville State, giving the Gamecocks a sturdy, physical presence who can develop into a reliable all-around piece in the offense[1]. His profile points to a classic TE toolkit: enough length and mass to handle inline work, with room to grow as a matchup target and blocker in a run-first system[1]. For teams, the appeal is upside and body type more than flash right now—he looks like a long-term piece who fits best with patient development and a role that rewards toughness, consistency, and dirty-work reliability[1].
