Clemson Football: BT Potter’s role underappreciated for the Tigers

There are plenty of Clemson football players that play important roles for the team.

We talk a lot about guys like Trevor Lawrence, Christian Wilkins, Travis Etienne, Tee Higgins, Justyn Ross, Clelin Ferrell and Dexter Lawrence. We talk about the secondary and the offensive line.

But one area in which the Tigers have improved immensely this season is on special teams.

A lot of that can be accredited to one man: True-freshman BT Potter.

Potter isn’t the starter at kicker or punter. He did go 5-of-5 on extra points and made his first career field goal last week at Florida State when Greg Huegel suffered a minor injury, but that’s not where he has found his niche so far.
