GREENVILLE – Deshaun Watson watched head coach Dabo Swinney give a small speech about Habitat for Humanity Tuesday, then received a double surprise.
The Clemson football team traveled to Greenville Tuesday afternoon for its fall community service project, and the players spent several hours helping build new homes and do yard work, landscaping and cleanup on existing homes.
During the opening ceremonies, however, Watson was honored as a member of the 2016 Allstate AFCA Good Works Team. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the award, which was established in 1992 to recognize a select group of college football players who have made a commitment to service and enriching the lives of others.
