South Carolina tight end K.C. Crosby will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a broken leg in Saturday’s 48-22 win over Arkansas. Crosby broke his fibula bone, the same bone wide receiver Deebo Samuel broke in the third game of the season.
“He really played extremely well, just hurt for him,” head coach Will Muschamp said.
Crosby, a 6-foot-1, 242-pound junior, made a key fourth down catch for the Gamecocks against the Razorbacks. He had two catches for 11 yards in the game. Those were his first two catches of the season. Sophomore Kiel Pollard will step into the third tight end spot Crosby had filled behind Hayden Hurst and Jacob August.
