Joey Clinkscales Biography

Joey Clinkscales is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on May 21, 1964 in Asheville, North Carolina, United States.

While learning to play wide receiver, Clinkscales redshirted in 1982 and played sparingly in 1983. During the 1984 season, however, he worked his way into the starting lineup. Although he was twice injured and missed several games, he managed 9 catches for 160 yards and 3 touchdowns, leading the team in yards-per-catch with 17.8. In the Vols’ 43–30 loss to Florida, Clinkscales made an athletic 48-yard touchdown catch in the 4th quarter to pull the team to within a score. He also had a 14-yard touchdown catch in the Vols’ 29–10 loss to Auburn, and an 8-yard touchdown reception in the team’s 28-27 win over Alabama.

Clinkscales played college football at the University of Tennessee from 1982 to 1986. He converted to wide receiver during his first year, deferring the quarterback position to highly talented fellow signee Tony Robinson. Clinkscales played during an era when Tennessee garnered a reputation as “Wide Receiver U.” Five of Clinkscales’s teammates in the Vol receiving corps— Anthony Hancock, Willie Gault, Clyde Duncan, Tim McGee, and Anthony Miller— would become first-round NFL draft picks. In spite of the stiff competition for playing time, Clinkscales caught 68 passes for 1,105 yards and 10 touchdowns during his college career.

Clinkscales was drafted in the ninth round of the 1987 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers as the 233rd overall pick. One reason he was not selected earlier in the draft was his lack of speed, as his time of 4.55–4.65 seconds in the 40-yard dash was considered slow for an NFL receiver. Kippy Brown, Tennessee’s wide receivers coach, stated, “Pittsburgh’s got a steal.” He dismissed concerns over Clinkscales’ speed, arguing, “In a clutch situation, I’d take Clinkscales over anybody I’ve coached.” Steelers offensive coordinator Tom Moore noted that Clinkscales had “a tremendous amount of quickness and concentration and ball judgment.”
