The Path to Norman
Jason Llewellyn played high school football in Aledo, TX. He was part of a state championship team in 2020 and started to see offers roll in. Alabama, Michigan, and Texas were among the schools to offer the young man. He committed to the Sooners roughly a year before his signing day.

Despite staffing changes and plenty of new offers, Llewellyn stayed locked in for OU the entire time. He was part of a fantastic class for Coach Finley, along with Kaden Helms and Daniel Parker.
Career so Far
Llewellyn seemed primed to contribute regularly in his first season on campus, but an injury slowed his progress. He still played in 10 games, but in a mostly limited role.

Highlights
This Season
Unfortunately, Llewellyn has been banged up throughout the spring and has missed time. This has been a theme of the tight end room over the offseason, with Kaden Helms and Blake Smith also missing time.
However, Llewellyn is expected to be fully ready before fall camp and will be a big part of the plan at tight end. Returning transfer Austin Stogner will be the first man up; Llewellyn’s blocking ability, along with ability in the receiving game, could set him up right behind Stogner and lead to extended minutes. With Sooner fans hoping for a fully healthy season, Llewellyn will be a big factor in a room with plenty of opportunity.
