The second of three Clemson products selected in the 2025 NFL Draft was R.J. Mickens.
The Los Angeles Chargers took Mickens on Day 3 of the Draft, grabbing him in the sixth round with the No. 214 overall pick.
After Mickens came off the board, ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller discussed what the Chargers are getting in the standout safety who started half of the 60 games he played in for the Tigers from 2020-24.
“30-game starter who ran a 4.49 (40-yard dash) at the NFL Scouting Combine at 6-foot, right at 199 pounds,” Miller said during ESPN’s coverage of the Draft.
