No one appreciates legacy of Bennie Cunningham more than Galloway

Braden Galloway definitely understands the history of success at the tight end position at Clemson.

A long list of NFL stars, All-Americans and All-ACC performers such as Dwayne Allen, Jordan Leggett, Michael Palmer, John McMakin and Brandon Ford had great careers representing the Tigers. But the bar for the position was set by a local man who was Clemson’s first two-time First-Team All-American, he was a first-round draft pick, won two Super Bowls in the NFL and was selected as they only tight end on the ACC’s 50th Anniversary Team in 2003.
