<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tennessee high school football is loaded with talent heading into the 2026 season, and the 5A group is packed with standout offensive playmakers. As summer approaches, several guys are emerging as top prospects to watch in Tennessee high school football recruiting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this scouting series breaking down the top football players by position and classification, here's an in-depth look at the top 5A offensive linemen in Tennessee entering the 2026 high school football season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BeechFootball/status/1997002636629889160?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/BeechFootball/status/1997002636629889160?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 OL [player_tooltip player_id='1634767' first='London' last='Parks'] – Beech High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1634767' first='London' last='Parks'] is coming off a terrific season with Beech, where he earned Prep Redzone First Team All-State honors. He took that next step as a junior and was flat-out dominant. Now, he returns as arguably the top offensive lineman in 5A. He has picked up several offers throughout the offseason. But with another quality campaign, the big lineman should see more come in.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He offers nice size, standing 6-foot-3 and weighing 290 pounds, with a strong frame that allows him to be a top-tier player in this class. Parks is violent with plenty of power, a quick first step, strong instincts and the ability to consistently open lanes for his players. The 2027 prospect is certainly a guard at the next level, but he has still shown a lot of good things at tackle. I like the upside on this player, especially in a run-first offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2141740} --> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/02/pashmore.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-2141740" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: Page OL [player_tooltip player_id='1570544' first='Preston' last='Ashmore'] before a game.</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 OL [player_tooltip player_id='1570544' first='Preston' last='Ashmore'] – Page High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1570544' first='Preston' last='Ashmore'] took that next step in his junior season at Page. He turned into one of the top trench players in Tennessee's Class 5A, which earned him 15 Division I offers after the season. He committed to Navy, where he has a bright future and should develop into a quality player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He offers solid size, standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 285 pounds, with a well-built frame that helps him dominate in the trenches. Ashmore is very physical at his right tackle position, typically driving players into the second level with ease. He's solid in pass pro, but excels in the run game, which makes him an intriguing player for Navy. The rising senior gets off the ball well, has good technique, constantly keeps his feet moving and offers an excellent motor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1689807} --> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2025/06/jaymullins2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1689807" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: Munford OL [player_tooltip player_id='1597028' first='Jaydien' last='Mullins'].</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 IOL [player_tooltip player_id='1597028' first='Jaydien' last='Mullins'] – Munford High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1597028' first='Jaydien' last='Mullins'] earned Prep Redzone All-State honors as a sophomore, but took the next step as a football player, which landed him on the list for a consecutive season. The premier 5A offensive lineman heads into his senior campaign with much momentum. He has 10+ college offers, but should see more roll in heading into August and beyond.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He offers excellent size, standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 275 pounds, with a long, athletic frame that has helped him become a staple on Munford's line. Mullins is a good all-around player, but I love watching him destroy people on run plays. He has a nice first step, is a very physical athlete, shows good technique and has a relentless motor. The prospect is a solid pass blocker, giving him a complete skill set that can translate to the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2212017} --> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2026/05/58-Caleb-Coffman-crop-1180x775-1779212768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-2212017" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: Page OL [player_tooltip player_id='905242' first='Caleb' last='Coffman'] at a Prep Redzone camp.</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 IOL [player_tooltip player_id='905242' first='Caleb' last='Coffman'] – Page High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='905242' first='Caleb' last='Coffman'], a veteran offensive lineman from Page, is quietly one of the state's better interior guys. He's gotten his fair share of playing time, including a good 2025 campaign where he was named 5A First Team All-Region 5. Now, he goes into the 2026 season looking to help his squad repeat as champions.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Coffman needs to refine his body to maximize his potential. He's athletic, but would be on another level with some work. The guard moves well, gets off the ball quickly, is good against the run and possesses the versatility to be used in multiple packages. Coffman must clean up certain parts of his game. However, he's a proven player who will be a good addition to many colleges.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/thetorriqbrooks/status/2032462173771858038?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/thetorriqbrooks/status/2032462173771858038?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2027 G [player_tooltip player_id='1671547' first='Torriq' last='Brooks'] – Kirkwood High School</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1671547' first='Torriq' last='Brooks'] is one of the most underrated offensive linemen in Tennessee and is due for a big senior season with Kirkwood High School. He's been a productive player throughout his career, but looks to have taken that next step during the offseason and is ready to show college coaches that he is a quality player. He holds one Division I offer from South Carolina State, but could see more come his way with a good senior year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He offers nice size, standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 270 pounds with a lean, athletic frame. Brooks is one of the more agile offensive linemen in his class, which helps him as a pulling guard and when he gets into open space. The rising senior has a quick first step, shows strong technique, has a relentless motor and dominates in the run game. He has to develop in certain areas, but I see the vision for this player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
