CLEMSON — Clemson quarterback Cade Klubnik was not throwing the football during practice on Monday as the Tigers continued to prep for the Pinstripe Bowl.

To be clear, the senior signal caller was taking reps, but he just wasn’t actually making any throws.

While meeting with the media on Monday following practice, wide receiver Tyler Brown disclosed that Klubnik is dealing with a thumb injury.

“We’re making sure he’s ready on game day,” Brown said. “He’ll be ready when the time comes.”

Klubnik did have his throwing hand bang off of a South Carolina defender’s helmet after a pass attempt during the second half of the 28-14 win over the Gamecocks a little over two weeks ago.

Klubnik, who is getting ready to play his final collegiate game, has dealt with multiple injuries during his senior campaign. A high ankle sprain suffered in the road win at Boston College kept him out against SMU the following week. Klubnik has also dealt with a quad injury this year.

This season, Klubnik has thrown for 2,750 yards with 16 touchdown passes. He has rushed for 270 more yards and four more scores.

Clemson will face off against Penn State in the Pinstripe Bowl on December 27. Kickoff is at noon and the game will be televised by ESPN.
