    Will Shipley Shines in the Playoffs and Looks Ahead

    Shipley showed deep gratitude, saying: “Coach Swinney, who I could go on about for years because he’s such a good football coach, but he’s an even better leader of young men. That’s what he always says—he has a PhD in helping 18-to-22-year-olds. And he helped me mature, he helped me grow, and he truly got me to where I am right now. My parents handed me off to him, and he handed me off to the Eagles organization.”

    Shipley had his breakout performance in the NFC Championship, racking up 165 all-purpose yards, knocking the ball loose, and scoring his first official NFL touchdown.

    Shipley’s mind-blowing sportsmanship provided him with a position on Good Morning America. At Clemson, Shipley racked up 4,253 all-purpose yards and 33 touchdowns and kept a 4.0.

    He was thankful to his precious teammates, such as TE Jake Briningstool, RB Phil Mafah, and WR Beaux Collins, for making him a better player both on and off the field.
