Former Clemson defensive tackle Payton Page turned some heads with an impressive performance on Thursday at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.

Page grew into one of Clemson’s defensive leaders as a senior in 2024, when he earned third-team All-ACC honors while posting 36 tackles (2.5 for loss), 0.5 sacks, a pass breakup and a pick-six over 14 games (all starts).

The 6-foot-3, 290-pounder finished his four-year Clemson career (2021-24) credited with 69 tackles (6.5 for loss), a half-sack, two pass breakups and two fumble recoveries across 53 career games (14 starts).
