When Clemson kicks off the 2021 season against Georgia at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, there will be a familiar face wearing a Bulldogs’ uniform.
Former Tiger cornerback Derion Kendrick will be wearing the red and black after transferring to Georgia on June 1. Kenrick was dismissed from the Clemson team on Feb. 28 after failing to properly communicate with the Clemson coaching staff on why he was missing classes and practice. It was not the first time Kendrick found himself in the coaches’ doghouse.
Kendrick, a two-year starter at Clemson, brings a ton of experience to a Georgia secondary that has just one starter returning.
