During most of his football career, Charlie Waters has either caught, thrown, or intercepted passes. Waters arrived in Tigertown as a quarterback, but was switched to receiver for the final 15 games of his Clemson career. Later, playing with the Dallas Cowboys, he intercepted 40 passes. A three-year letterman from 1967-69, Waters was an All-ACC selection in 1969. During his Clemson career, he caught 68 passes for 1,196 yards (or 17.1 yards per catch) to go along with four touchdown receptions. He still ranks eighth all-time for yards per reception and 18th all-time in receiving yards. After his Clemson career, Waters was a third round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in the 1970 NFL Draft. He went on to play 11 years at cornerback for the team and won two Super Bowl rings. During that time, he was selected All-Pro twice (1977 and 1978) and to the Pro Bowl three consecutive seasons (1976-78). Waters was inducted into the Clemson Hall of Fame in 1981. |
