The injuries continue to pile up for Clemson. Star receiver Justyn Ross was injured in the first half of Saturday’s game against UConn.

Ross limped to the sideline after being tackled on a reception in the first quarter and eventually had to be helped to the locker room.

He emerged from the locker room later in the first half on crutches and with a boot on his left foot. Ross had 3 catches for 40 yards before leaving the game.

If Ross is unable to go next week it would obviously be a big blow for Clemson. The Tigers host ACC Atlantic Division leader Wake Forest next weekend. Clemson closes out the regular season Nov. 27 at South Carolina.
