Sophomore wide receiver Tyler Brown will be sidelined for Clemson’s game today against NC State. Brown, who injured his ankle in the blowout win over Appalachian State, was not dressed for the game, despite not appearing on Clemson’s pregame availability report.
Brown has contributed four catches for 23 yards across the Tigers’ first two games this season. His absence could be felt in Clemson’s passing game, as the wideout was a key player in 2023, leading the team with 52 receptions and 531 receiving yards. He also scored four touchdowns last season, quickly emerging as one of the Tigers’ most reliable targets.
Brown’s absence will likely lead to more opportunities for other receivers to step up as Clemson opens ACC play today. His recovery will be closely monitored in the coming weeks as the Tigers look to build on their early-season momentum.
