Clemson Corner Shelton Lewis to Redshirt, Enter Transfer Portal

The junior, now listed as a backup after limited early-season snaps, is expected to depart with two years of eligibility.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Lewis informed Clemson he will use this season as a redshirt and plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal when it opens.
  • He will preserve two years of eligibility at his next program, according to On3 insider Pete Nakos.
  • Lewis appeared in three of Clemson’s first four games for 49 snaps with seven tackles and a pass breakup after losing the “Tiger” spot to Misun Kelley.
  • He logged his most action with 33 snaps against Syracuse when Kelley was sidelined, and his Clemson career totals include 29 tackles, 10 pass breakups, and two interceptions across 27 games.
  • The move trims depth in the secondary as the Tigers, 1-3 overall and 0-2 in ACC play, head to North Carolina for Saturday’s noon kickoff.
