In Jacksonville Jaguars minicamp, head coach Urban Meyer is starting to get a glimpse of what he saw from first-round draft pick Travis Etienne during his prolific Clemson career, which he finished as the ACC’s all-time leading rusher and the NCAA FBS record holder for most career games scoring a touchdown (46).
“I saw flashes of what I remember seeing in college here the last week and a half,” Meyer told reporters Monday.
Etienne is the ACC career record-holder for rushing yards (4,952), total touchdowns (78), rushing touchdowns (70) and points (468).
The two-time ACC Player of the Year and 2020 consensus All-American is one of only 12 players in FBS history with 4,000 career rushing yards and 1,000 career receiving yards, and his 4,952 rushing yards finished as the second-most by any 1,000-yard career receiver in FBS history.
