Justin Foster moving on from the Clemson football program

Clemson football defensive end Justin Foster will no longer be with the program, Tiger coach Dabo Swinney told the media on Wednesday.

Foster will be moving on from football after missing the 2020 season dealing with COVID-19. Swinney told the media that he tried to talk Foster into staying, but he ultimately decided that he wanted to pursue a career in the ‘working world’ rather than continue with football. He graduated from Clemson in December.

In the three seasons before 2020, Foster accumulated 60 tackles, seven sacks and one forced fumble.
