Like a magic trick, Clemson’s deep passing game has disappeared

Clemson has a great corps of wide receivers. No one doubts it.

Artavis Scott is one of the best wide receivers in the ACC, if not the country. Ray Ray McCloud has already shown some flashes of his brilliance. Charone Peake and Germone Hopper are two savvy veterans, while Deon Caine and Trevion Thompson both have high ceilings.

But something is still missing. That something, or someone, is Mike Williams. It’s been obvious the Tigers’ downfield passing game is missing its 6-foot-4, 210-pound wide receiver.

Williams has been out since the first touchdown of the season when he made a spectacular catch in the back of the end zone against Wofford in Week 1.
