SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Freshman defensive tackle Tayquon Johnson admits it has not been easy to redshirt his first season at Clemson and play only seven total snaps across three different games.
However, Johnson had positive things to say Thursday morning as he reflected on his redshirt year.
“Being able to redshirt, it was different not being able to come in and impact,” Johnson told The Clemson Insider during the Fiesta Bowl media day at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn. “It’s just challenging, almost. But being able to get experience as a redshirt freshman with us being able to have four games to play in, it’s just kind of getting us to grow.
