During Clemson’s spring practices, offensive coordinator Tony Elliott reiterated when the Tigers have a tight end that can be a legitimate playmaker, they are hard to stop. He said it again during fall camp.
He proved to be right in No. 1 Clemson’s win over Wake Forest on Saturday. The Tigers’ three tight ends—Braden Galloway, Davis Allen and J.C. Chalk—combined to catch seven passes for 114 yards and a touchdown in a 37-13 victory.
“I think they were very productive. Again, I have said it along and anyone that has followed this offense knows we are at our best when we have the ability to make plays at the tight end position,” Elliott said.
