Clemson’s Will Shipley met with the media on Friday at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis ahead of Saturday’s on-field workouts for running backs, wide receivers and quarterbacks.
Shipley, an all-conference performer who amassed more than 4,000 all-purpose yards and scored 33 total touchdowns during his three-year Clemson career, is certainly confident in his abilities on the gridiron.
The dynamic and versatile athlete made it clear what he feels an NFL team would get if they draft him in April.
“I am the number one all-purpose back in this draft,” Shipley told reporters at the combine.
Shipley also spoke about a number of other topics, which you can check out below from various reporters:
