Reports from Susan Miller Degnan, a Miami football beat writer for The Miami Herald, have revealed that Miami quarterback Tyler Van Dyke is dealing with a right leg injury and was spotted on campus Monday with his right leg wrapped in an ace bandage all the way up to above his knee.
This is major news for the ACC as the Hurricanes have one of their biggest games of the season in Week 8 against Dabo Swinney and the Tigers. Van Dyke has been great this year for Miami, completing 70.5 percent of his passes for 1,721 yards and 16 touchdowns with six interceptions.
When asked about the injury, Miami head coach Mario Cristobal had this to say:
“I don’t talk about injuries,” Cristobal said. “I just told one of our guys that he’s ready to go. So, you have to write what you have to write and the next question.”
Clemson will face Miami this Saturday, Oct. 21, with kick-off at 8 p.m. ET on ACC Network.
