Georgia Tech head football coach Paul Johnson delivered unfortunate news on Tuesday at his weekly press conference when he announced that star b-back KirVonte Benson will be out for the remainder of the season.
Benson suffered a knee injury during the first quarter of Saturday’s 49-38 loss to South Florida. The redshirt junior stumbled on what can be described as an awkward run before getting hit in the knee by a USF defender. Benson would stay on the sideline for the remainder of the first half and was seen on a stationary bike but following half time came back out in his street clothes.
