Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney held a Zoom conference call with the media on Monday evening.

Swinney gave an injury update on sophomore offensive lineman Elyjah Thurmon, who has missed Clemson’s last three games after being injured in practice ahead of the UNC game on Oct. 4.

Thurmon was sidelined for the UNC, Boston College and SMU games due to an undisclosed injury. The 6-foot-4, 325-pounder was also unavailable against Georgia Tech on Sept. 13 after suffering a different injury earlier in the season. 

On Monday evening, Swinney said there was no new update.

“He will get re-evaluated next week,” the head coach said. “Probably know a little more next week.”

A Mississippi native who finished his prep career in Georgia before signing with the Tigers in 2024, Thurmon entered the 2025 season after previously playing 146 snaps from scrimmage over eight games (one start) in his freshman season in 2024.

Thurmon played 28 snaps in this year’s season opener against LSU, then played 51 snaps as Clemson produced both a 100-yard rusher (Adam Randall) and 100-yard receiver (Bryant Wesco Jr.) vs. Troy. After missing the Georgia Tech game, he returned to action against Syracuse and played 50 snaps as Clemson accrued 503 yards vs. the Orange.

Following an open date this weekend, the Tigers (3-4, 2-3 ACC) return to the field on Saturday, Nov. 1 against Duke at Memorial Stadium (noon, ACC Network).
