Clemson’s running back situation has a little more clarity this morning. Not a lot, mind you. But a little more.

Running back Will Shipley announced his decision to declare for the NFL Draft on social media Wednesday night. The 5-foot-11, 210-pound junior from Weddington, North Carolina, in 2022 became the only player selected to the all-Atlantic Coast Conference first team as a runner, an all-purpose player and a specialist.

Shipley finishes his Clemson career with 2,747 yards and 31 touchdowns on the ground. He also had 85 career receptions and two receiving touchdowns. He ran for 827 yards and five touchdowns this season as Clemson won its final five games to finish 9-4.
