It has been said numerous times, that the effectiveness of the tight end is a good barometer of just how well the Clemson offense is running. After a very underwhelming season in 2014 from the position group as a whole, the 2015 team saw a resurgence by the tight end group from primary tight end, Jordan Leggett. And while Leggett is indeed the primary target from the tight end position, there were others on the 2016 team that were destined to carve out a niche within the team.
Jordan Leggett, Senior, 46 Catches/736 Yards/16 YPC/7 TD/49.1 YPG
After starting his career by being admittedly lazy, Leggett built upon a solid 2015 season with another great receiving year by wracking up 736 yards on 46 catches for a stellar 16 yards per catch.
