A Deshaun Watson signed Clemson Tigers 8x10 from a BAS-verified signing session is the direct physical record of the quarterback whose back-to-back Heisman finalist campaigns at Clemson gave the ACC a national story that the sport's most prominent platforms followed across two consecutive seasons. Condition: NOS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🏈 The first time Deshaun Watson brought the Clemson Tigers to the College Football Playoff National Championship Game – January 2016 against the Alabama Crimson Tide in Glendale – he threw for 405 yards and four touchdowns in a performance that the sport evaluated as one of the finest quarterback games in CFP Championship history and that ended in a 45-40 Alabama victory that denied Watson's first championship bid. The Heisman Trophy vote that December had awarded the award to Derrick Henry over Watson, who finished second in a ballot whose closeness reflected how genuinely dominant Watson's regular season had been. The lesson of that first championship game loss – that Watson could play at the highest level on the biggest stage – was as important as the championship itself would have been in establishing what the 2016 season's rematch could deliver. Condition: NOS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🏈 Deshaun Watson's Clemson career ended having produced two Heisman Trophy finalist finishes – in 2015 and 2016 – without a Heisman Trophy, a specific footnote that the college football record books carry as one of the sport's more discussed near-misses given the quality of the campaigns Watson ran both seasons. His overall Clemson statistics placed him among the most productive quarterbacks in program history, rewriting records at an institution that had produced ACC quarterbacks for decades. The combination of his ability to extend plays with his legs, his accuracy in the intermediate passing game, and the competitive temperament that two championship game appearances documented at the highest possible college football level gave the Clemson program a quarterback legacy that the Tigers fanbase still celebrates as the most important individual player in the program's modern era. The signed 8x10 in this listing, confirmed authentic by Beckett, is the personal document from that career.
