The biggest gainers and losers from Clemson’s big weigh-in results
Clemson held its big weigh-in on Thursday, a day before the Tigers open fall camp.
The Tigers had several players that were challenged to gain weight over the summer, and many did. Other players were asked to lose weight, and several of them did so as well.
Jackson Carman, who is battling for the starting left tackle job, is down 20 pounds from his previous weight. Carman is currently at 335 pounds and is in the best shape he has been in since he arrived at Clemson.
Carman was challenged to lose some weight during the summer by offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell. He appears to be physically in a good spot to replace Mitch Hyatt at left tackle.
In addition to Carman, starters Travis Etienne, K’Von Wallace, J.C. Chalk, Chad Smith, Nyles Pinckney, James Skalski, John Simpson and Sean Pollard had notable weight losses.
Here are the biggest weight gainers and weight losers from the big weigh-in, as well as the full results.
