STATE CHAMPS! 300: 10 more 2021 defensive linemen to know

Next in our STATE CHAMPS! 300 is a seven-part series, highlighting 100 additional 2021 players you need to know, kids who’ve either already made their mark on the high school landscape, or are about to. No other class has had been as impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and this is a way of trying to help shine a light on those kids. It’s not necessarily meant to be comprehensive — that would be hard to touch on EVERY kid in the 2021 class — but we tried to get to as many as possible. Nor is it possible to get every offer — the landscape is constantly changing — but we are more than willing to add an offer, if we missed one. (We’ll limit it to actual scholarship offers, though, not just roster spots.)
We’ve given you 15 additional 2021 quarterbacks, 10 more 2021 wide receivers, 20 more 2021 running backs and 15 more 2021 offensive linemen you should keep an eye on.
Here are 10 more defensive linemen from the 2021 class to keep an eye on.
These are in alphabetical order, not ranked.
