Former Penn State quarterbacks Sean Clifford and Trace McSorley had some time to catch up a bit this week as their two NFL teams, the Green Bay Packers and New England Patriots (respectively), joined up for joint practices leading up to their preseason matchup Saturday night. McSorley did not record any stats in the preseason matchup, but Clifford continued to be the top backup to the Packers’ starter Jordan Love.

Clifford completed 13 of 19 pass attempts for 137 yards but had no touchdowns to show for it. But he also did not turn the football over, and his chance to lead the Packers to a victory was cut short due to a severe injury to Patriots cornerback Isaiah Bolden. Bolden was injured after colliding with a teammate and was taken to a hospital from the field for medical attention. The two teams agreed to end the game at that time.

At the time of the suspension of the game, Clifford had just completed a 3rd-and-7 pass for a gain of 7 yards to the New England 18-yard line with the Packers down 21-17. Who knows how the drive may have ended if the severe injury had not occurred.

I was so confused as to what was going on lastnight. I was following the game on the evil network and then the updates stopped. Then all of a sudden the game was over. Hope Bolden is okay.
