Clemson coach Dabo Swinney revealed on Monday during a press conference ahead of the team’s College Football Playoff date with Notre Dame in the 2018 Cotton Bowl that three Tigers had failed NCAA-administered drug testing. Standout defensive tackle and potential first-round NFL Draft pick Dexter Lawrence, offensive lineman Zach Giella and tight end Braden Galloway are the three members of the Clemson team that tested positive.
Swinney said the test found slivers of a a performance-enhancing substance used for muscle-building and is currently on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) prohibited list.
Swinney said he’s holding out hope that the “B” samples which will immediately be tested before a suspension is handed down will clear all three.
