Defensive starter among Clemson players out against UGA

Clemson has announced the players who will be unavailable for Saturday’s game against Georgia, and the list includes a significant contributor along the defensive line.

Defensive tackle Tyler Davis is among those who will miss the game either because of an injury, COVID-19 protocols or other undisclosed reasons. Clemson did not specify which players fall into each category, though there have been rumblings throughout the week of Davis recently testing positive for COVID-19.

Asked earlier in the week if he could confirm Davis had tested positive, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney would not confirm or deny his status.
