  • While Clemson edge defender Clelin Ferrell has just one sack on the season,  he’s still made a significant impact on the pass-rush with 17 total pressures so far in 2017.
  • Five of those 17 pressures came on Saturday night against Virginia Tech in the form of two hits and three hurries. Although he hasn’t notched any in Clemson’s last two games, Ferrell also has eight run stops, and owns a run defense grade of 84.8.
  • Listed at 6-foot-5 and around 260-pounds, he has the elite length NFL teams love on the edge, regardless of scheme.
