Kelly dismissed from CU Football Program

Clemson University Head Football Coach Dabo Swinney announced Monday that he has dismissed quarterback Chad Kelly from the football team. “I have dismissed Chad Kelly for conduct detrimental to our program,” said Swinney. “He has had a pattern of behavior that is not consistent with the values of our program. I hope he will mature and grow from this and become the man and player I know he can be. I wish him nothing but the best in the future academically and athletically.” Kelly had been in a three-way competition at quarterback this spring along with senior Cole Stoudt and freshman Deshaun Watson.
