Fox Sports released their 2016 College Football All-America teams on Tuesday and two Clemson defenders made the second-team list with defensive lineman Christian Wilkins and defensive back Codrea Tankersley.

Tankersley has 43 tackles including six for loss, three interceptions, and ten pass deflections in 2016.

Wilkins has accumulated 33 tackles including 4.5 for loss, two sacks, a forced fumble, a ten-yard run on a fake punt, and a one-yard receiving touchdown on the season.

Deshaun Watson was not selected on the first or second-team All-America list as Fox Sports chose Lamar Jackson and Baker Mayfield at the quarterback position.
