No new major injuries after first South Carolina scrimmage
After working through its first scrimmage on Saturday and ninth overall practice on Tuesday, South Carolina head coach Shane Beamer said the Gamecocks have no new major injuries to report.
“No new injury updates from last week, everything is still the same,” Beamer said. “We’ve been fairly fortunate. We’ve got some guys that are banged up a little bit with just normal bumps and bruises but no one new from a long-term standpoint.”

Beamer announced last week that EDGE Jaylen Brown and offensive guard Nick Sharpe are out for the spring with undisclosed injuries.
That news came a few weeks after Beamer announced at the beginning of the spring that four players would miss all or most of the spring.
Tight end Michael Smith, defensive tackle Caleb Williams, center Ryan Brubaker, and offensive tackle Damola Ajidahun are all out with various injuries.

“Unfortunately, those four guys are out for spring with some injury things that we wanted to go ahead and get done now, so they’d be ready for the season, and they all will be,” Beamer said in mid-March. “Optimistic that maybe a couple of guys will be able to do a little bit more towards the end of spring practice but right now they won’t start with us and we’ll see how it goes as we go through the spring. But other than that, everybody is in good shape.”
South Carolina completed its ninth practice of the spring on Tuesday. The Gamecocks will be back in action on Thursday morning.
The Garnet and Black spring game is scheduled for Friday, April 18, at 7:30 p.m. at Williams-Brice Stadium.
