Clemson QB Christopher Vizzina takes big step toward injury return
Christopher Vizzina is out of his elbow brace and having his best week since the injury, according to Clemson coach Dabo Swinney.
Christopher Vizzina, Clemson's quarterback, has experienced a significant breakthrough in his recovery from a left elbow injury sustained against Georgia Southern during Week 2. Despite the injury impacting his initial prognosis, head coach Dabo Swinney reported that Vizzina's progress has been the most favorable he’s seen since the injury.
Recent advancements include a transition from a larger brace to a sleeve and pad, although Vizzina is still grappling with regaining his full range of motion. Swinney refrained from affirming Vizzina’s return to game action, acknowledging the injury's slow recovery progress. True freshman Tait Reynolds assumed the starting role against North Carolina following Vizzina’s unavailability in that game and another earlier contest against Cal.
The coach underscored the limited opportunities for Vizzina, implying that Trent Pearman and Brock Bradley would precede him in the lineup if needed. With two starts under his belt, Vizzina has completed 14 of his 23 passes for 102 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions.
