One Clemson football player who we’ve heard very little about throughout the course of the spring and in fall camp is Cornell Powell.
Powell has been competing with fellow veterans Diondre Overton and TJ Chase for the starting slot wide receiver position throughout fall camp. Though Powell isn’t as lauded as some of the other Clemson football players, he still could be poised for a breakout season.
Powell (6-foot-0) is now up to 210 pounds and it’s clear that he spent the majority of last season in the weight room getting stronger and working on his hands.
