Summary
Virginia Tech’s defensive line enters 2026 with depth and talent, anchored by All-ACC returnee Kemari Copeland, but the edge rusher spot is wide open — Aycen Stevens, Javion Hilson, Mylachi Williams, and Jason Abbey are all vying for starting roles. The key to success hinges on how quickly transfers like Samuel Okunlola, Eric Mensah, and others from elite programs adapt and contribute. With Copeland dominating inside, the unit’s ceiling depends on consistent pass rush pressure from the edges — if they deliver, the Hokies’ front seven could be a game-changer.
