After his redshirt season in 2013, O'Daniel started 1 of 12 total games. During the 2014 season, O'Daniel's 12 games included 31 tackles, one tackle for loss, one sack and one caused fumble in 87 snaps. On November 15, 2014, O'Daniel's performance against Georgia Tech earned him a team co-defensive player-of-the-game accolade. On December 29, 2014, O'Daniel's performance against Oklahoma earned him the accolade of special teams player-of-the-game.[2] In the 2015, O'Daniel was once more part of Clemson's special teams, recording 32 tackles, 19 made with special teams in 15 total games. By his junior season in 2016, O'Daniel rose to a starting linebacker role.

Professional career

Pre-draft

O'Daniel attended the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis and completed all of the combine and positional drills. On March 15, 2018, he attended Clemson's pro day, but opted to stand on his combine numbers and only performed positional drills. O'Daniel also attended meetings and private workouts with multiple teams, including the Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans, and Buffalo Bills.[4][5][6] At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, O'Daniel was projected to be a third or fourth round pick by NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked as the sixth best outside linebacker prospect in the draft by DraftScout.com and was ranked the 11th best outside linebacker by Scouts Inc.[7][8]
