What are things looking like in fall camp for Clemson football? Here’s our mid-camp report as the Tigers head into the final couple of weeks of preseason.
The 2019 Clemson football season is just two weeks away from kicking off.
The Tigers will open up play against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in Death Valley on a Thursday night. The matchup will be featured on the newly-launched ACC Network and Tiger fans will have an opportunity to see their team celebrated beforehand as part of ESPN College GameDay.
Before the games begin, the Clemson football coaching staff will continue to push the Tigers to get better and make sure they’ll fully prepared for the upcoming season.
As we have approached the midpoint of the 2019 Clemson football fall camp, here’s our mid-camp report, by position.
Quarterbacks
Beginning with the quarterbacks, we should point out that the coaching staff has had nothing but good things to say about Trevor Lawrence.
Lawrence was trying to do too much in spring camp, but has seemingly been doing a much better job as a leader. He is up to 220 pounds and looks more physically ready for the grind of an entire season.
Outside of Lawrence, we haven’t heard much about the quarterback position. We do know that one of the quarterbacks threw an interception in the situational scrimmage, but other than that it’s been fairly quiet.
Chase Brice is locked in as the second-string and it should be expected that freshman Taisun Phommachanh redshirts, though he’ll likely still play in four games.
