CLEMSON – Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney updated the injury status on a Clemson offensive lineman during Tuesday’s press conference ahead of Saturday’s ACC Championship rematch against SMU.
Swinney says Elyjah Thurmon, a sophomore who was injured in practice ahead of the UNC game, will be out again against the Mustangs (3:30 p.m., ESPN). The Tigers’ staff will get to the open date next week, and then reevaluate the Rienzi, Miss., native.
Thurmon was sidelined for the UNC and Boston College games, due to the undisclosed injury. He was also unavailable against Georgia Tech after suffering a previous injury earlier in the season.
