Clemson coach Dabo Swinney on Sunday updated the health status of a starting defensive lineman injured in the Tigers’ loss at North Carolina State.
Defensive tackle Bryan Bresee sustained a torn ACL and will be out indefinitely, Swinney said. Bresee sustained the injury in the third quarter Saturday. He limped off the field at Carter-Finley Stadium with the help of medical personnel before watching the rest of the game from the bench with ice on his knee.
With Tyler Davis set to miss seven to eight weeks after having surgery on his bicep last week, Bresee’s injury means the Tigers will be without its starting defensive tackle tandem for the foreseeable future.
Bresee had one tackle and a quarterback hurry before sustaining the injury. He has 14 tackles, three tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks on the season.
Football season has finally arrived. Time to represent your Tigers and show your stripes!
