Injuries slowing down Tigers' progress at cornerback

Coming into the spring, one of the areas of concern was in the secondary, where Clemson must replace four starters from last year’s unit.

One of those positions is at cornerback, where All-ACC performer A.J. Terrell left early to pursue a career in the NFL. The Tigers know what they have in Derion Kendrick, who earned second-team honors on the All-ACC team in 2019. However, they were hoping Mario Goodrich or Andrew Booth could lock down the other side before the spring was over.

That is doubtful to happen with Booth still nursing his right knee, which he had scoped after the national championship game, and Goodrich sidelined with an ankle injury.
