SAN DIEGO -- One of the reasons new Los Angeles Chargers receiver Mike Williams attended Clemson was the college’s penchant for developing talented receivers.
Six receivers from Clemson graced NFL rosters last year, including Jaron Brown (Arizona Cardinals), DeAndre Hopkins (Houston Texans), Adam Humphries (Tampa Bay Buccaneers), Charone Peake (New York Jets), Sammy Watkins (Buffalo Bills) and Martavis Bryant (Pittsburgh Steelers).
The steady flow of receivers from Clemson successfully making the jump to the NFL has created the identity of “Wide Receiver U” for the Tigers.
