This offseason we’ll give you a full 360 on each position group, evaluating how they performed last season, who they lost and gained, and what to expect in 2024. We continue with linebacker.

Last season, Jeremiah Trotter Jr., Barrett Carter, and Wade Woodaz gave Clemson one of the better linebacker corps in the ACC.

His PFF grade dropped from 81.4 as a sophomore to a respectable but not elite 70.
