Elliott updates Ross’ status, where All-ACC receiver is at

Tony Elliott has not been in the weeds with Justyn Ross when it comes to the star player’s way back from spinal surgery last June. But Clemson’s offensive coordinator is very encouraged and optimistic from what he has heard.

Ross met with his surgeon in early June, the last meeting with his specialist to decide whether the All-ACC wide receiver can indeed come back and play football for the Tigers this fall.

“J Ross has worked hard and he looks great. I am optimistic,” Elliott said Tuesday morning while meeting with the media at Dabo Swinney’s Media Olympics at the Allen Reeves Football Complex in Clemson.
