Clemson At NFL Combine: Higgins Talks, OL Gets Measured

While players have yet to take the field at the 2020 NFL Combine, it was another busy day for draft hopefuls in Indianapolis, Indiana, on Tuesday.

The quarterbacks, receivers and tight ends who went through measurements Monday spoke with the media Tuesday and talked about NFL teams they've spoken with, even if it was informal.

Former Clemson receiver Tee Higgins, per Higgins and reports, has already been linked to several teams this week, including the Giants, Chiefs, Patriots, Broncos and Bills. The potential first-round pick had plenty to say and left plenty of people talking about him after his media session.

#Clemson WR Tee Higgins said he always loves having the chance to rip a ball away from a DB. Said it’s like imposing your will on them. Mentioned A.J. Green as the player in the league he’s learned the most from, in that regard.
