CLEMSON – Garrett Williams comes from a long line of military veterans so it’s no surprise he wants to follow in their footsteps and pursue a commission in the Marine Corps. However, at the end of the 2018 season, he’ll have to make one of his most difficult decisions yet.

The junior tight end will graduate in December and will then decide whether to forego his final season of eligibility to enter the service or come back for one last tour with his teammates.

Williams told the media Tuesday that he’s been thinking about joining the Marine Corps for quite some time.
