Paul Tyson, the great-grandson of Bear Bryant, has transferred to a different program for the second year in a row.
Tyson was a backup quarterback at Alabama from 2019-2021. He had 150 passing yards on 16 pass attempts during that span.
At the start of 2022, it was announced that Tyson was transferring to Arizona State. Clearly, he wanted a change of pace.
On Wednesday morning, Tyson officially committed to Clemson for the 2023 season.
“Another great one in the QB room,” Clemson said in a statement. “Welcome home, Paul Tyson.”
Tyson will join a quarterback room that may look a bit different next season.
Clemson quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei is currently exploring his options in the transfer portal. At the moment, Cade Klubnik has the inside track at winning the starting job in 2023.
That being said, Tyson gives Clemson another upperclassman that could run Dabo Swinney’s offense in the fall.
