AJ Garson brings veteran pass-rush juice to Duquesne’s defensive line
AJ Garson has been a disruptive, high-motor interior edge presence for Duquesne, highlighted by his 2021 breakout: 17 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, and a 10-tackle, 3.5-TFL, 2.5-sack performance in the NEC title game, which earned him NEC Defensive Player of the Week honors. At 6-foot-4 and 235 pounds, he offers length, experience, and proven backfield production — the kind of lineman who can tilt a game with effort and burst. If you need a tough, seasoned DL who can finish plays, Garson is worth a hard look.
