NFL Team Parts Ways with Former Clemson Player

This NFL team has parted ways with a former Clemson player.

Cornerback Derion Kendrick was waived by the Los Angeles Rams on Friday, they announced.

Kendrick was selected by the Rams in the sixth round (No. 212 overall pick) of the 2022 NFL Draft.

The Rock Hill native spent three seasons (2018-20) at Clemson before playing his final college season at Georgia in 2021, when he had 41 tackles and a team-high four interceptions for the Bulldogs.

Kendrick was a two-year starting corner at Clemson after making the move from receiver after his freshman season.
