Jeremiah Trotter Jr. flashed his potential on Saturday during Clemson’s 49-3 victory over South Carolina State at Death Valley.
The talented true freshman linebacker tallied five tackles, tied for the most among Tiger defenders in the contest, and recorded his first career sack when he brought down SC State quarterback Quincy Hill in the fourth quarter.
While Trotter (pictured above, No. 54) showed some of what he is capable of Saturday, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney knew well before then what he feels about the former five-star prospect – that his future is really bright.
“I’ve seen all I need to see in practice to know what his future is,” Swinney said Sunday during his Zoom conference call with the media.
