With the 46th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals snagged Clemson offensive lineman Jackson Carman. The pick was acquired in a trade with the New England Patriots that saw Cincinnati move down and get two extra fourth-round picks, which turned into Tyler Shelvin and D’Ante Smith.
Carman, weighing in at 6-foot-5 and 322 pounds, played in 40 career games (27 starts) with the Tigers, helping them claim three berths in the College Football Playoff.
Carman is a native of Fairfield (OH) who played at Fairfield High School, which is just outside of Cincinnati.
