Corey Clement’s season of uncertainty will continue this week.
The junior running back’s status for Saturday’s game against Illinois remains questionable, he told reporters Tuesday afternoon.
If he were to return, it would mark a seven-week hiatus from game action. The last time Clement took the field was during the season opener against Alabama Sept. 5.
“I’m still uncertain [about Saturday],” Clement said. “I’m just looking forward to the next day, not really pressing anything.”
Clement said he would travel with the team to Champaign this weekend and it will most likely be a game-time decision, depending how he feels when he wakes up Saturday.
