During his Zoom conference call with the media Sunday evening, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney was asked about this defensive back who did not make the trip to Winston-Salem for Saturday’s game against Wake Forest.

Swinney was asked if there is any long-term concern injury wise with senior cornerback Sheridan Jones, who sustained a stinger early in the Louisiana Tech game on Sept. 17 and didn’t return.

“Well, I don’t know,” Swinney said. “I think there’s always (concern) when you’ve got to be held out of a game. But he seems to be doing well and hopefully will be back this week.”

Jones contributed three tackles in the season opener against Georgia Tech and added three tackles and a pass breakup vs. Furman.

The Norfolk, Va., native entered the 2022 season credited with 52 tackles (1.5 for loss), eight pass breakups, two interceptions and a fumble recovery in 855 defensive snaps over 38 games (11 starts).
