ATLANTA - For No. 14 Clemson’s season opener against No. 1 Georgia this Saturday (noon/ABC), the Tigers have chosen former Tiger and current Atlanta Falcons’ cornerback AJ Terrell as their Honorary Team Captain.
“It’s an honor to be selected as team captain. I feel like it’s mutual respect for myself and Clemson just giving me the opportunity to do that. Could’ve (chosen) anybody, but being in the hometown right at our stadium down in Mercedes-Benz and thinking of me to make that trip down there, (that) is huge,” Terrell said. “I know I did right when I was up there at Clemson, and I know (Coach) Swinney and everybody (knows) that it means a lot to me and to the university for me to go out there and walk with the guys.
