Breath of Life: Brannon Spector reflects on 2021, his surgery, and mom's cancer

CLEMSON – Wide receiver Brannon Spector spent the majority of 2021 wondering if he would be able to play football again. Hoping beyond hope that his breathing would return to normal. Praying that his mother would recover from colon cancer.

So far, 2022 has given Spector the breath of life.

Spector, a redshirt freshman out of Calhoun, Georgia, enters 2022 with 19 career catches for 152 yards and two rushes for 21 yards in 221 snaps over 14 games (one start). However, he missed all of the 2021 season as he recovered from COVID, dealt with reflux issues, and his mother’s sickness.
