Jaxon Villegez-Williams brings blue-collar size and upside to Troy’s defensive front
In 2026, Jaxon Villegez-Williams is a fresh-faced 6-foot-2, 293-pound freshman defensive tackle for Troy, and the early read is a classic interior-line projection: big frame, local Alabama pedigree, and strong prep production (70 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, 3.0 sacks in his senior season at Faith Academy). He was rated a consensus three-star recruit and ranked among Alabama’s better prep linemen, which suggests real developmental upside. If you need a disruptive, high-motor interior body who can grow into the role, he’s a worthwhile watch.
