Clemson tight end Braden Galloway was taught a valuable lesson in last week’s game against Georgia Southern.
After catching a pass of 20 yards from quarterback Kelly Bryant that moved the football to the Eagles’ 22-yard line, Galloway made a mistake on the next play. The tight end was supposed to go out and block for wide receiver Justyn Ross on a wide receiver screen. But the freshman did not go out and engage the defensive back.
The missed assignment allowed the GSU cornerback to attack the ball and intercepted the pass, ending the Tigers’ first drive of the game with a turnover, the first of the season for Clemson.
