Pest Players Of The Week: Jaylan Foster And The Clemson Defense

It was a tough week on the gridiron as both Carolina and Clemson suffered losses on the road. While the losses still sting, there were some bright spots, including Gamecock defensive back Jaylan Foster, the nation’s leader in interceptions, who grabbed another one against the Aggies. Jaylan was recently named a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award, due to his ability to pester opposing quarterbacks, and is this week’s Gamecock pest player of the week.
