Four Clemson players have found themselves on the watch lists for the Outland Trophy and the Bronko Nagurski Trophy which was announced by the Football Writers Association of America.

The Outland Trophy presented by the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases not only goes to the top interior lineman in the country, but it also is part of a public campaign to raise awareness on the importance of influenza (flu) prevention during the 2019-2020 season.

Making the watch list for the Outland Trophy from Clemson are senior offensive tackle John Simpson and senior offensive tackle Tremayne Anchrum.

The Nagurski Trophy goes to the best defensive player in college football and is presented by the Charlotte Touchdown Club. Sophomore defensive end Xavier Thomas and junior linebacker Isaiah Simmons are on that watch list.
