Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney met with the media following his fourth-ranked Tigers’ 17-10 loss to No. 9 LSU in the season opener for both teams at Clemson’s Death Valley on Saturday night.

Star wide receiver Antonio Williams was injured early in Saturday’s game and did not return.

Williams was injured on the second play of Clemson’s second possession. He pulled up on a deep pass to T.J. Moore to the end zone. Before the play was over, Williams grabbed his hamstring on his right leg. He went into the tent and was in there for a few minutes before heading out and going to the locker room.

After the game, Swinney was asked if he knows the status of Williams.

“I don’t,” Swinney said. “He couldn’t return, so obviously that was a big loss for us. But we had plenty of opportunities, and we didn’t capitalize.”

Last season, in his third year at Clemson, Williams recorded career highs with 75 receptions, 904 receiving yards and 11 receiving touchdowns across 14 games (all starts) en route to first-team All-ACC honors.

Williams, who was a freshman All-American in 2022, entered this season with 153 career receptions for 1,732 yards and 17 touchdowns. He had caught at least one pass in each of the 33 previous games he appeared in while at Clemson, but that streak ended Saturday night, as Williams did not record a reception before exiting the game with his injury.
