The 2019 Clemson football freshman class has several talented prospects that will make an immediate impact. Here are five freshmen to watch.

The 2019 Clemson football season is a little more than a month away from kickoff.

The Tigers are currently going through their final summer workout sessions and will begin fall camp in just a couple of weeks.

The entire Clemson football freshman class is now on campus after the rest of the group joined the team during the second session of summer classes. The class has 29 in total, many of which will make an impact almost immediately.

The freshmen are now going through summer workouts with the rest of their teammates and are beginning to get accustomed to their new lives as collegiate football players. In the 2019 freshman class, there was one 5-star, 12 4-stars and several 3-stars according to the 247 Sports’ Composite Player Rankings.

The Tigers certainly have many talented veterans that will likely take the majority of snaps at most positions, but the new redshirt rule will allow us to see each freshman in at least four games and still redshirt.

That opens up the door for these freshmen to potentially compete for playing time a little easier than before.

As we continue to prepare for the upcoming Clemson football season, here’s a look at five freshmen that will likely make an immediate impact for the Tigers in 2019.
