Texas A&M's defense will be a little shorthanded in the Aggies' season opener against Northwestern State Thursday night.
Head coach Jimbo Fisher said that sophomore cornerback Clifford Chattman will miss 4-6 weeks with an undisclosed injury and is currently recovering from surgery. Fisher subtly mentioned that Chattman was injured during last Thursday's press conference.
Chattman, who missed last season due to academic reasons, was in contention for a starting job at corner for the Aggies. A&M's current depth chart currently lists junior Charles Oliver (6-2, 202) and sophomore Debione Renfro (6-2, 193) as its starters at corner.
