Chase Brice Is Going To Be In A Different Role At Duke Then He Was At Clemson

Chase Brice is going to be in a different role at Duke then he was at Clemson!

Why?

Because he will be the starting quarterback for David Cutcliffe instead of the backup like he was at Clemson where he played for Dabo Swinney and where he backed up Trevor Lawrence who is Clemson’s starting quarterback!

During his tenure at Clemson in 2017 Chase Brice did not see action the gridiron!

In 2018 though that changed!

What will his stats look like at Duke!

Right now I don’t know what his stats will look like as a starting quarterback however, after his first game in a Duke uniform on Saturday verses Notre Dame in South Bend Indiana and throughout the season I will get some idea!
