Clemson football adds two four-star offensive linemen to 2025 recruiting class

Clemson football’s solid start to its 2025 recruiting class got even better on Sunday when a pair of four-star offensive linemen committed to the Tigers to cap the program’s Elite Retreat weekend visits.

The first to commit was four-star tackle Brayden Jacobs, who made the announcement via X, formerly known as Twitter.

A 6-foot-7, 310-pounder from Buford (Georgia) High, Jacobs became Clemson’s ninth commitment for the 2025 class, which is now ranked No. 3 nationally behind Notre Dame and LSU.

Jacobs’ father, Brandon Jacobs, played college ball at Auburn and Southern Illinois before playing in the NFL for nine seasons with the Giants, Patriots and 49ers.

Later on Sunday, Jacobs was joined by Jaylan Beckley of Addison, Texas, who also announced his intentions via X.

Beckley, who’s 6-3, 305, also is a basketball standout at Trinity Christian Academy. He became Clemson's 10th commit for the 2025 class by picking the Tigers over Auburn, Georgia, Florida State, LSU, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas A&M, among others.

Jacobs is rated as the No. 17 offensive tackle nationally and the No. 24 overall prospect among players of all positions in the state of Georgia, according to the 247Sports Composite.

He selected Clemson over at least 27 other programs, including Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, LSU, Miami, NC State, Ohio State, Oregon, Penn State, Tennessee and Texas, among others.

The commitments of Jacobs and Beckley represented Clemson’s second and third offensive linemen in the Class of 2025, joining four-star Easton Ware of Lynchburg, Virginia.
