1. Backup Quarterback

The backup quarterback position may not seem like much on the surface, but the truth is that this means much more than most will understand.

First, in a season like this, you could have to play your backup quarterback at any moment.

Second, the winner of the competition this fall- between Taisun Phommachanh and DJ Uiagalelei- has an inside track on winning the starting job next spring for the 2021 Clemson football season.

It will be interesting to see what happens with the battle between Phommachanh and Uiagalelei this season and what they do when they get on the field.
