Clemson Football: 3 Reasons Feaster and Etienne need more carries

Losing to Syracuse was unfortunate, however, Kelly Bryant’s injury is much more worrisome. Not only did Bryant suffer a concussion, but, there is no certainty surrounding the health of his ankle.

Should Bryant miss any time moving forward, Clemson must get talented running backs, Tavien Feaster and Travis Etienne, more carries. While backup quarterbacks, Zerrick Cooper and Hunter Johnson are full of potential, they aren’t ready to lead the charge for this Tigers’ offense.

Feeding the ball to Feaster and Etienne will take pressure off of whoever is Clemson’s starting quarterback. In the past this offense ran through the quarterback, but, this season the Tigers’ tailbacks have the talent to take over ball games.
