Three Clemson stars named consensus All-Americans for first time in Tigers’ history

Clemson football’s 2018 season still has at least one, maybe two, games left in it. But the Tigers have already exceeded several major program milestones.

For the first time ever, Clemson had three players named consensus first team All-Americans after being recognized by the majority of the five organizations recognized by the NCAA. All told, five Tigers appeared on at least one of the All-American teams, also a program record.

And senior defensive lineman Christian Wilkins led the group by being named first team by all five publications, making him Clemson’s fifth ever unanimous All-American.

Senior defensive lineman Clelin Ferrell and senior offensive lineman Mitch Hyatt joined Wilkins as consensus picks.
