Galloway hopeful Elliott will feed the tight ends this season

CLEMSON – Clemson tight ends were responsible for 50 receptions last season, but Braden Galloway thinks that with offensive coordinator Tony Elliott now coaching that group, those numbers will go up.

Galloway led the tight ends with 27 receptions, while Davis Allen added 16. The tight ends had just 26 total catches in 2019. Back in 2016, Jordan Leggett was responsible for 46 receptions by himself, while Dwayne Allen had 49 back in 2011.

Galloway thinks his group can get back to those higher numbers.

"With coach Elliott coming over, he's calling the plays, so I do think we'll have a bit more opportunity,” Galloway said after Monday’s practice.
