Clemson backup quarterback Hunter Johnson is planning to transfer from Clemson, a couple of sources confirmed to The Clemson Insider Monday.
Johnson met with Clemson head football coach Dabo Swinney last week to discuss his future at Clemson and his intentions to transfer.
TCI also confirmed Johnson was not at workouts this morning as the team continued summer workouts.
Johnson is a former 5-star recruit, who enrolled at Clemson in January of 2017. Last year, the Indiana native played sparingly in the Tigers’ return to the College Football Playoff.
He threw for just 234 yards in seven games, as he was used mostly as the third-team quarterback behind starter Kelly Bryant and Zerrick Cooper.
