Clemson OL to declare for NFL draft


by - Assoc. Editor -

Clemson redshirt junior offensive lineman Taylor Hearn spoke to reporters on Wednesday and shared that he will forgo his final year of football eligibility and declare for the 2018 NFL Draft.

"Talking with Coach Swinney and Coach Caldwell we discussed it would probably be beneficial for me to come out this year," Hearn said. "I've graduated and that is what I came here to do and best for me."

Hearn and Christian Wilkins were honored as seniors as they ran down the hill during Clemson's Senior Day.

Regarding Wilkins, he told reporters that he is focused on finishing out the season strong and didn't discuss the NFL.
