USC football should have running back Markese Stepp available against ASU even though he’s picked up a new injury.
The Markese Stepp injury saga has stretched throughout the long 2020 offseason and unfortunately, it still isn’t quite resolved.
During training camp, Stepp made serious progress back from last year’s ankle injury but picked up a touch of turf toe.
The good news is neither the new nor the old injury should keep him from playing when USC football battles ASU on Saturday.
