Clemson defensive end Justin Foster, who retired from football in February due to COVID-related reasons, is returning to the team in June.
Foster said he spoke to coach Dabo Swinney on Tuesday and told him he isn’t sure when or if he’ll regain the form that made him a potential NFL draftee, but that he would like to try.
“[Swinney] said if you’re feeling better, even if you’re not 100 percent, you can start working with the team and we’ll build you up from there,” Foster said from his home in Shelby, South Carolina. “He said, ‘You don’t have to play 60 snaps a game; you’ll just do what you can do.’”
