Swinney Updates Sadler’s Status After Being Carted off vs. SMU
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney held his weekly press conference on Tuesday ahead of Saturday’s game vs. Duke at Memorial Stadium.
Swinney provided the latest update on starting left guard Collin Sadler, who had to be carted off the field with an injury during the loss to SMU on Oct. 18.
Sadler went down on the field injured after a play in the fourth quarter. The injury cart was brought out for him, and trainers put an air cast on his leg.
On Tuesday, Swinney gave the latest on Sadler’s status, saying it was the “best-case scenario” as far as his diagnosis.
“Best-case for Sadler, too, from what we initially thought on the field,” Swinney said. “So, he’s not a long-term situation.”
