Senior DE with 3.5 Sacks and Elite Physicality for Tarleton State
Pius Njenge, a 6'4", 265-lb senior defensive end from Houston, TX, brings elite physicality and proven production to Tarleton State after transferring from Gardner-Webb. In his 12-game season at Gardner-Webb, he recorded 31 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and six tackles for loss, showcasing his ability to disrupt plays behind the line [4]. His differentiators include a rare blend of size and intensity, with a history of opening seasons strong—such as his debut against Wofford—indicating high readiness and mental toughness [4]. As a Senior 3V with active status, Njenge is a reliable, high-intensity fit for teams needing a physical edge at DE who can immediately contribute without injury concerns [1][2]. He’s a must-watch for coaches seeking a disruptive, battle-tested lineman with FCS-level experience.
