USC Football Injury Report: Stephen Carr at full speed (8/3)

The return of USC football Fall Camp could have brought with it some worrying signs on the injury front, especially with regard to sophomore running back Stephen Carr, who is recovering from back surgery.

Instead, Carr settled any lingering doubts over his recovery by going “full speed” on Friday.

“That made my heart good. I’ll sleep a lot better tonight,” said head coach Clay Helton, who had indicated Carr would be eased back into action this fall at Pac-12 Media Day.

Carr didn’t just warm up with the team and go through positional drills. He was also able to grab a few reps in both 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 segments.
