Swinneys surprise Watson by naming Habitat home in his honor

A few weeks back, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and his wife Kathleen called Deshaun Watson and surprised their national champion quarterback.

Last year, the Swinneys All In Team Foundation decided they wanted to build a Habitat for Humanity home in the Clemson area. The house, which is being built in Pickens, is expected to be completed sometime this summer.

Knowing how near and dear Habitat for Humanity is to Watson’s heart, considering his family had one built for them when he was 11 years old in his hometown of Gainesville, Georgia, the Swinneys wanted to honor Clemson’s former quarterback by putting it in his name.
