CLEMSON - A number of former Clemson football players made 2023 NFL rosters. However, one of those stories stands above all the rest with wide receiver Justyn Ross. The Kansas City Chiefs awarded him a spot on their 53-man roster recently, which is remarkable given that many thought Ross’s career was over not long ago.
“It just fills my heart with just joy,” Swinney said. “This is one of the most talented kids we’ve had come through here, and I’ve never really been through anything like what all he had to deal with. Just unbelievable.”
Ross started his Clemson career with a 1,000-yard season from 46 receptions; he also had nine touchdowns in his rookie season.
