Tight end has talent, potential to be force this year

One area where Clemson could see marked improvement this year is at tight end, where the Tigers appear to be loaded with talent and potential.

Some of that potential was displayed in 2020, as Braden Galloway caught 27 passes for 369 yards and two scores, while Davis Allen hauled in 16 receptions for 247 yards and four touchdowns. Allen’s 15.4 yards per catch average ranked third on the team, while Galloway’s 13.7 was fourth.

Jaelyn Lay showed what he is capable of doing in the spring game, catching six passes for 39 yards, while the coaching staff is real high on redshirt freshman Sage Ennis and true freshman Jake Briningstool, one of the top tight ends in the country coming out of high school this year.
