Former Benedictine star Clelin Ferrell celebrates football homecoming, of sorts

Posted

RICHMOND, Va. — Former Benedictine High School standout Clelin Ferrell became the highest drafted football player the Richmond-area has ever produced when the Raiders selected the Clemson University star fourth overall in 2019.

This season the 27-year-old Defensive End will do something he's never done before as a professional football player — play a home NFL game in the Eastern Time Zone.

Sean Robertson caught up with Ferrell at Washington Commanders training camp to talk about his homecoming.
