Former Clemson DE promises a better 2nd year in the NFL
Clelin Ferrell feels he is like a good cut of steak. You can’t rush cooking a filet mignon. You have to let it marinate.
“It takes time, but when it is ready, it is going to be ready,” the former Clemson defensive end said.
Ferrell used the steak analogy to describe his rookie season with the Oakland Raiders in 2019. Though some of the pundits feel his production as a rookie was not that of a top 5 pick, the two-time All-American from Clemson felt he had a good rookie season, one that laid the foundation for him and a Raiders team that his says is still filling each other out.
