McFadden explains how he has earned the trust of Clemson’s staff

One of four new starters on Clemson’s offensive line is Jordan McFadden, who is tasked with replacing two-time All-ACC selection Tremayne Anchrum at right tackle.

McFadden, a redshirt sophomore, enters the 2020 season having played 332 snaps over 17 career games. The 6-foot-2, 295-pounder from Spartanburg, S.C., spent last season as Jackson Carman’s backup at left tackle and logged 315 snaps across 14 games.

As he gets ready to take on a bigger role on the O-line this season and try to ensure that star quarterback Trevor Lawrence is protected from the right side, McFadden feels he has had a good fall camp to this point.
