How Does Clemson Plan to Use Speedy Transfer RB?

Clemson made a lot of moves in the transfer portal addressing the defense this offseason, but there wasn’t much added on the offensive side of the ball.

However, the Tigers’ big transfer addition on offense is an impact player – SMU transfer running back Chris Johnson Jr. Head coach Dabo Swinney wanted someone capable of making an immediate impact, as well as a back that offered something different from some of the other running backs on the roster.

While Johnson is in the process of learning new Clemson offensive coordinator Chad Morris’ offense, like the other running backs, Morris likes what he’s seen early on in spring ball from Johnson – one of the fastest backs in the country, if not the fastest.
