Clemson, S.C.—Clemson junior fullback and tight end Garrett Williams had surgery to repair a torn ACL late last week and his status for the beginning of fall camp is unknown, Head Coach Dabo Swinney said Tuesday.

Williams suffered the knee injury during a spring practice and did not play in the April 8 Spring Game.

Over the last two seasons, Williams has played in all 30 Clemson games, 28 of which have resulted in victories. The native of Orlando, Fla., has two receptions for 21 yards and has played 252 career plays from scrimmage, plus many others on special teams. He has had a major impact on Clemson’s ground game the last two years.
