Josh Sapp Commits to West Virginia Mountaineers, Bringing Experience to 2026 Offense

The redshirt senior tight end transitions from Clemson, adding depth and veteran presence to the Mountaineers' lineup.

Josh Sapp, a redshirt senior tight end, has officially joined the West Virginia Mountaineers after completing his college career at Clemson.

Standing 6‑foot‑2 and weighing 235 pounds, Sapp brings a blend of size and experience that could reshape the Mountaineers' offensive line and receiving options.

During his tenure with the Tigers, he logged 273 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and his 267 snaps in the 2025 season were split between blocking and pass‑catching duties, highlighting his versatility.

A New Chapter for the Mountaineers

The move comes after a highly publicized recruitment that involved prominent figures such as Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and WVU’s own Rich Rodriguez, underscoring the significance of his decision for the program.

Coaches expect Sapp to be a cornerstone in the 2026 offensive scheme, providing both reliable blocking and a dependable target in the passing game.
