Nick Eason wants to prevent injuries with his group, says they need to train like the pros

CLEMSON – Nick Eason is bringing his NFL experience to the college ranks, and he hopes his players learn the value of taking care of their bodies throughout the season.

Eason, Clemson’s defensive tackles coach, spent a combined 17 years in the NFL as a player and coach, and when he arrived at Clemson, he noticed that the Tigers have suffered a multitude of injuries along the defensive line in the past few seasons.

That includes Bryan Bresee and Tré Williams, who each had surgery but are expected to be ready to go for fall camp.
