Clemson QB Injury: Who Steps In For Reynolds?
1 Oct
Summary
- Trent Pearman is the current backup for starting QB Tait Reynolds.
- Christopher Vizzina is still recovering from an elbow injury.
- Vizzina has limited range of motion and is not yet at full strength.
Clemson's quarterback depth is being tested as head coach Dabo Swinney addressed potential scenarios following an injury to freshman starter Tait Reynolds. Fifth-year quarterback Trent Pearman is currently designated as the primary backup, ready to step in if Reynolds is unable to continue.
Christopher Vizzina, who began the season as the starter, has returned to practice. However, he is still recovering from a left elbow injury sustained earlier. Swinney indicated that Vizzina is not yet at full strength, with his primary limitation being a reduced range of motion.
Despite Vizzina's availability for potential emergency situations, Pearman remains the next player in line behind Reynolds. Swinney also alluded to other players like Chris Denson potentially moving up the depth chart if needed. The team aims for Vizzina's complete recovery to bolster their quarterback options.
