CJ Dawson brings proven, award-winning depth to Gardner-Webb’s offensive line
CJ Dawson is a redshirt senior OL at Gardner-Webb who logged 12 games in 2025 and earned All-Big South honorable mention while helping power an offense that averaged 27.5 points and 417.8 total yards per game, with 179 rushing yards per game. His value is less about flashy stats and more about reliability, durability, and trench consistency: he has been a multi-year game-day contributor since Tiffin and gives a team experienced, physical depth up front. If you need an older, battle-tested lineman who helps stabilize the run game, he’s a strong fit.[7][8]
