CLEMSON — Clemson football added its eighth player in its 2026 class with the commitment of four-star wide receiver Naeem Burroughs on Saturday.
The 5-foot-11, 175-pounder from the Bolles School in Jacksonville, Florida, is rated as the No. 7 player in the state and the No. 8 receiver nationally by the 247Sports Composite rankings.
Burroughs chose Clemson over Florida, Southern Cal and Texas.
In his junior season, Burroughs recorded 33 receptions for 829 yards and 12 touchdowns, according to Max Preps. He is the eighth player to commit to coach Dabo Swinney’s 2026 class, which is ranked No. 21 nationally. The class has four four-star recruits, three three-stars and one player who isn’t rated.
