The San Francisco 49ers and Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson had a semi-private workout on Wednesday with one other team. Tight end Jordan Leggett was also part of that workout, per Clemson sports reporter Dan Hope.

Other players who participated in the workout were wide receivers Artavis Scott and Germone Hopper.

Leggett played in 10 games as a true freshman in 2013 and had 10 receptions for 176 yards and two touchdowns. In 2014, he started in seven of 11 games played while recording 14 receptions for 161 yards and one touchdown.

In 2015, he was a finalist for the John Mackey Award after catching 40 passes for 525 yards and eight touchdowns. Leggett caught 46 passes for 736 yards and seven touchdowns in 2016 on his way to a national championship.

Lance Zierlein of NFL Media had the following to say in his scouting report:

"Has elite size for the position, but his motor and effort leave a lot to be desired. Despite his size, might not have the attitude necessary to be an in-line blocker on the NFL level. Tape shows a route-runner who could struggle to uncover against quality man coverage. Leggett has traits and talent, but his production was helped along by Clemson's system. Will need a more ramped-up motor to reach his potential."
