Shane Beamer updates Juice Wells, other South Carolina injuries
South Carolina lost one of its best wide receivers one drive into the game Saturday, and Shane Beamer updated his injury and a few others after Saturday’s game.
Gamecocks receiver Juice Wells will see a specialist on Tuesday and will have a prognosis after that. They don’t believe it can be season-ending and that Wells will be able to potentially return this season.

Wells scored a touchdown on the Gamecocks’ opening drive but left the game right after that, having to be carted off the field and not putting any weight on his foot.
Beamer said at halftime South Carolina feared he broke a bone in his foot. Wells missed almost all of the preseason and most of the first two games of the season dealing with a lower-body injury.
Tyreek Johnson got banged up last week at the end of the game against Furman. Beamer also mentioned they’re hopeful JT Geer, Markee Anderson and Ahmarean Brown will be available next week.
