4-star Purdue defensive end commit George Karlaftis (West Lafayette, Ind.) announced a Clemson offer Friday afternoon.

"Blessed beyond measure to receive an offer from Clemson!" Karlaftis posted on Twitter.

Karlaftis committed to hometown Purdue during last football season, in a time he also earned offers from Louisville, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan State and Southern Cal. Florida offered earlier this month in addition to other offers from Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame and Tennessee in 2017.

He posted 101 tackles with 12.5 sacks, three pass breakups, three caused fumbles, two blocked punts and two blocked field goals as a junior.
