Clemson Football: Why Nyles Pinckney may declare for NFL Draft

The Clemson football program expects to return the vast majority of players along the defensive line in 2020, but one who may choose to go in DT Nyles Pinckney.

Though Tiger fans have had the decisions of Isaiah Simmons, Travis Etienne, A.J. Terrell and Tee Higgins, on their radar, one player who has slipped through their minds in Pinckney.

Pinckney likely didn’t receive a great draft grade. He’s not going to be taken on the first or second day of the NFL Draft and, honestly, would likely be leaving college to become an undrafted free agent.
