LaNorris Sellers injury update: South Carolina QB leaves Texas A&M game for locker room

LaNorris Sellers, South Carolina's star quarterback, left the team's game against Texas A&M on Saturday, Nov. 7, with an apparent ankle injury. The incident occurred during the second quarter after Sellers took a sack and fumbled the ball. Following the injury, Sellers exited the field and promptly entered the injury tent, later arriving at the locker room accompanied by a trainer.

South Carolina's head coach, Shane Beamer, expressed concern over the injury during halftime, stating that they are awaiting the results of an X-ray on Sellers' ankle. The third-year starter has been instrumental in the Gamecock's 3-game winning streak and had previously delivered a 5-touchdown performance against Oklahoma in Week 9.

Prior to the game, Sellers had accumulated 1,849 passing yards and 22 total touchdowns, with only seven interceptions to his name. Beamer expressed confidence in backup quarterback Cutter Woods, affirming that Woods is South Carolina's backup with full trust. However, Beamer also highlighted the team's struggles on the line of scrimmage, noting that opponents are dominating in the running game.
