Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney reported good news and bad news on the injury front when he spoke with the media Monday afternoon.
It sounds as if the third-ranked Tigers will have middle linebacker James Skalski when they play No. 2 Notre Dame in the ACC Championship Game on Dec. 19. However, the news is not so good for his backup, Jake Venables.
Swinney indicated Venables will likely miss the game after breaking his arm against Virginia Tech on Saturday.
“He has to have surgery tomorrow. I think he will be out,” the Clemson coach said.
