Dumaka Atkins brings veteran O-line pedigree and proven power to Tennessee State
Dumaka Atkins has the kind of résumé that matters in the trenches: a former four-star offensive lineman at Florida State who was named Tennessee State’s 2008 All-OVC second-team tackle and was listed at 6-foot-4, 302 pounds for the Tigers in 2008–09[12][13][15]. His differentiators are strength, size, and long-term line development—he was previously recognized by Florida State as its Most Improved OL and graded out at 93% as a high school junior[14][15]. For a team, that suggests a sturdy, technically coachable blocker with real pedigree; the only catch is that the available public information is historical, so current 2026 performance data isn’t readily verifiable from the sources reviewed[1][12][15].
