Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence expected to start vs. Wake Forest

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Quarterback Trevor Lawrence was a full participant in Monday's practice, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said, and the freshman is expected to start Saturday's game against Wake Forest after going through concussion protocol following a hit against Syracuse last week.

"I definitely expect him to play," Swinney said. "I don't see any reason why he wouldn't."

Lawrence left last week's game late in the second quarter after being hit in the shoulder and head on a scramble along the sideline. He was examined in the medical tent in the immediate aftermath, then retreated to the locker room before halftime.
