There is no denying the fact that Clemson Tigers quarterback Deshaun Watson has exceptional talent. Unfortunately, his first season in college football was plagued by injuries — a hand injury, sprained MCL and torn ACL.
Watson is expected to be 100 percent healthy this year, however, and if he is able to avoid the injury bug we could see a new star emerge.
In fact, NFL Media’s Lance Zierlein has been so impressed with Watson after watching film during the offseason that he believes the quarterback will “wreck the ACC” this season.

Clemson will have to replace a number of standouts on the defensive side of the ball in 2015, however, they are loaded when it comes to the skill positions and Watson is a man capable of leading the team to glory.
But will Watson and the Tigers offense be hurt from the departure of offensive coordinator Chad Morris? That is what we will have to wait and see.
