Next Man Up: Who steps in and contributes with loss of Justyn Ross?

Next man up.

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney told the media Monday that wide receiver Justyn Ross is scheduled for neck and spine surgery on Friday and is out for the season. The condition needing surgery was found after a spring practice.
