4. Justyn Ross/Tee Higgins

Justyn Ross and Tee Higgins come in at No. 4 for us and it has more to do with their health than anything else.

Out of all the Clemson football players that came away banged up, it seemed that Ross and Higgins probably came away with the worst of it.

Both missed time during the Ohio State game and were visibly not themselves as the game progressed. Clemson relied heavily on Travis Etienne in the passing attack because those two guys were banged up.

Ross and Higgins make our list of Clemson football players to watch because the Tigers need them to be healthy.

Clemson needs those two wide receivers to play at a high level and to be 100 percent.
