Charlie Johnson offers deep reserve value and special-teams versatility for Clemson
Johnson entered 2026 at Clemson as a walk-on who has appeared in five career games with nine offensive snaps, which makes him more of a developmental depth piece than a proven production player right now[13]. His biggest differentiators are size, willingness to contribute wherever needed, and a steadily expanding role after logging special teams work in 2023 and limited offensive snaps in 2024-25[13][12]. For a team, he fits best as a low-drama, high-effort roster competitor with upside if you want a rugged, coachable player who can grow into more responsibility[13].
