John Simpson: More than just a big body, he's an athlete
Simpson scored a touchdown in the win over NC State in Raleigh.CLEMSON – John Simpson is more than just a big body, and he wants NFL teams to know that.
The big offensive guard out of Charleston performed for NFL scouts, general managers and coaches at Clemson’s Pro Day last Thursday, and he was hoping to show off his athleticism as well as his size.
“I was just trying to show (NFL teams) that I’m more explosive than most teams may think, more athletic,” Simpson said. “Most teams think that I’m just a bigger guy that can move, but not really move. I was just trying to show them that I can do everything and be agile, and just trying to boost my stock.”
