The Clemson Tigers are no strangers to their superstars bringing home postseason awards, especially under veteran head coach Dabo Swinney.

Swinney has made the Tigers a household name in the college football landscape, and he’s done so primarily on the back of strong quarterback play every year.

That was no different this season as Clemson’s offense was led by junior superstar Cade Klubnik.

It’s Klubnik’s second year as the primary starter for the Tigers, and he’s seen drastic improvements in his game over his time as QB1.

This season, his performance has been spectacular enough to be named to postseason award watch lists, most recently one of the most prestigious awards for the position.

In an announcement made Tuesday, the Davey O’Brien Foundation named Cade Klubnik one of 35 quarterbacks who will be in the first round for consideration for the Davey O’Brien Award.

The Davey O’Brien Award is given annually to the quarterback judged by the Davey O’Brien Foundation to be the best at his position in the nation.

Clemson won this prestigious award a quarterback, Deshaun Watson, who won the award in consecutive seasons, covering 2015 and 2016.

Klubnik did more than enough to be considered for the award, throwing for 1,836 yards with 20 touchdowns to just three interceptions on 146-of-219 passing.

It was nothing short of a spectacular 2024 junior campaign, and he continues to make a name for himself around the country as one of the best at his position.
