4. KJ Henry, DE

KJ Henry is a guy that many seem to have forgotten about.

Henry came into Clemson as a 5-star, but redshirted due to the depth that the Tigers had built at defensive end.

He, without a doubt, has a chance to make a big impact in 2019.

Henry will be battling with Justin Foster and fellow redshirt freshman Justin Mascoll. Currently, I’d say that Henry is a bit behind Foster for the starting spot but ahead of Mascoll. He could potentially have a huge spring and vault himself up to the ranks of co-starter.
