Defensive end Logan Rudolph has seen limited action in his first two seasons with Clemson for a couple of reasons. First, he had to redshirt his freshman year due to a shoulder injury and last year played behind talented players like Clelin Ferrell and Austin Bryant at defensive end.
But the sophomore is due for a big year as one of the few veteran players left from last year’s line. Having such a young team opens the door for both rookie and veteran players alike to battle for the chance to earn a starting spot, meaning guys like Rudolph have to really compete and set themselves apart from the others.
