From the moment the Arizona game ended, USC football head coach Clay Helton indicated the Trojans would use the bye week for two things: To get better and to get healthy.
Getting healthy doesn’t just apply to the long list of injured players who sat out Tuesday’s practice on Howard Jones Field. It also extends to proactive measures. Namely, protecting quarterback JT Daniels’ arm.
The freshman passer didn’t do any passing on Tuesday.
“I just wanted to take two days off the arm. It’s been a long training camp as well as a lot of throws the first five weeks,” Helton said.
