Early enrollee

Brings to Clemson: Of the multiple hybrid D-line signees, Reuben has among the most impressive highlight reels. Reuben added weight from his junior to senior seasons but still showed an explosive burst off the line and the strength to take care of business in getting off blocks and bring down ballcarriers. He shows everything you want in a physical defensive line prospect.

Depth chart fit: With three departures expected at defensive tackle, Reuben is a natural fit inside but played D-end in high school. Reuben is in a group of DL prospects in the class who could fit at DE or DT, as well as incoming DT signee Tayquon Johnson. Reuben could compete to play beyond the redshirt limit with strong spring and fall camps.

Number to know: 2 - Reuben is a second Kansas City product to sign in as many classes, joining rising sophomore DB Mario Goodrich.
