During his five years at Clemson, Cornell Powell played with a half dozen current NFL wide receivers, including Mike Williams, Hunter Renfrow, Ray-Ray McCloud, Deon Cain, Tee Higgins and Amari Rodgers.
Now, Powell is an NFL receiver himself after being selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in Saturday’s fifth round (181st overall) of the 2021 NFL Draft, and he is ready to take the winning mentality he competed with at “Wide Receiver U” to a franchise that is very familiar with winning, having appeared in each of the past two Super Bowls and won the big game two seasons ago.
