In last week’s victory over Wofford, 12th-ranked Clemson barely threw the football to the tight end.
In fact, of the 12 players who caught a pass in the Tigers’ 49-10 victory, only one was by at tight end – an 11-yard completion to Jordan Leggett. Only one other time was a tight end targeted on a play, which went incomplete to freshman Garrett Williams.
But don’t figure the lack of passes thrown to the tight end in the season opener to be the norm. Clemson still has big plans for the tight end position in the passing game.
