Clemson OL Signing Undrafted Free Agent Deal

A former Clemson offensive tackle is getting his shot.

Tristan Leigh has found a landing spot in the NFL.

Leigh is signing as an undrafted free agent with the Minnesota Vikings after not hearing his name called during the 2026 NFL Draft.

After signing with Clemson as a five-star recruit in the 2021 recruiting class, Leigh took over a starting role in the 2023 season. He started 33 games over the past three seasons, with most of those coming at left tackle.

Overall, the 6-foot-6, 310-pounder played 2,202 offensive snaps over 42 games in his five-year career as a Tiger from 2021-25.

Prior to the 2025 season, Leigh was voted by his teammates as a permanent team captain, and he’s now pursuing his dream of playing in the NFL.
