Welcome back my old friend! It has been awhile since I have seen you.
Of course I’m talking about you, the tight end position … the missing piece in Clemson’s offensive attack. You finally made your presence known at Death Valley last Saturday after more than a year off. Five times in the second-ranked Tigers’ win over Georgia Southern, you found the football.
The five receptions are the most by the tight end position at Clemson in one game since Jordan Leggett caught seven in the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship Game.
“We have always wanted to involve our tight end,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said.
