Samford’s veteran interior anchor: Armond Lloyd brings size, experience, and leadership
Armond Lloyd is a 6-3, 306-pound graduate student defensive tackle for Samford in the 2026 season, and that veteran frame alone tells you he’s built to eat blocks and help stabilize the middle of the defense. His college profile has long emphasized leadership and consistency; Samford listed him as one of the leaders of its defensive line in 2021, and he also earned the school’s Mr. Bulldog honor in 2022 for excelling in the classroom, competition, and community. He’s the kind of interior lineman who fits a program wanting toughness, maturity, and reliable run-defense presence.
