Christian Wilkins was a menace during his time on Clemson’s defensive line, helping the Tigers win the 2016 and 2018 College Football Playoff titles.
He was a first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft and is now a standout defensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins.
But, after his appearance as the celebrity guest picker on ESPN’s College GameDay on Saturday ahead of a big-time showdown between Clemson and NC State, many fans are wondering if TV is in Wilkins’ future.
As you can see below, the reaction on social media was overwhelmingly positive to Wilkins’ guest appearance on the show:

Christian Wilkins was as sure an NFL prospect as he is a future TV analyst/commentator.

Ex-#Clemson great Christian Wilkins has, hands down, been this year’s best Guest Picker.
Some network needs to lock him up as a guest analyst once the Dolphins are done.

How will his picks fare? That remains to be seen, but it seems a future in the broadcast industry isn’t out of the question for the former Clemson star.
