As most of you know by now, Clemson had three players selected in the 2025 NFL Draft this past weekend in Green Bay, Wis. The Cincinnati Bengals selected linebacker Barrett Carter, the Los Angeles Chargers added safety R.J. Mickens and the Dallas Cowboys picked up running back Phil Mafah.

And though the draft was not a bust for the Tigers, it was not a complete success either. Carter’s selection came in the fourth round of the draft, marking the first time in 15 years Clemson did not have a player selected in the first three rounds of an NFL draft.
