Clemson quarterback Hunter Johnson has submitted his transfer request, ESPN confirmed on Monday.
Johnson, a sophomore, was a five-star recruit in the 2017 class and threw for 234 yards, two touchdowns and an interception last year. His transfer was first reported by Tigerillustrated.com
After competing for the starting job in the spring, Johnson asked to be part of a three-quarterback committee. The Indiana native preferred to start full time, but with Kelly Bryant still on the Tigers roster, opportunities were limited.
247Sports reported Johnson has expressed interest in Purdue and Northwestern as two possible destinations, both close to his home state.
