Justyn Ross checkup
Dec 8, 2020, 1:58 PM

I know a lot of people are wanting there to be some breaking news after Justyn's checkup in Pittsburgh today (which I understand is already over). I have been told that Justyn's wishes - even before the checkup - were to kind of keep this quiet for a bit and let him digest the news and be with his family. So the fact that he doesn't really want anything released has nothing to do with good news or bad news, it's just that this family has a lot of decisions to make.
There will be no official Clemson release on this, at least right now, and the next time we have any availability with anyone on the football staff is Sunday when we talk to Coach Swinney. If there is news to come out of this, it might be from Justyn himself on Twitter or through the school.
And just to reiterate - Chris Fowler was WAY off base in his comments Saturday. If Justyn is cleared to resume football activities, the plan is to let him continue to run routes on air and then participate in spring practice with NO contact. And then contact in the fall if everything goes well. The whole "he can play against Notre Dame" stuff was just nowhere close to being right.
So sorry there isn't news to report on this. Hopefully, we all hear some good news soon. And again, the lack of news doesn't reflect anything bad. This was the plan BEFORE the trip. His family was bombarded with stuff after the Fowler comments.

realistic, Dabo was pretty clear when the original announcement about his condition came out that JR would NOT be playing this season and laid out a gameplan/timeline that was also pretty clear that there was zero intention of seeing him on the field THIS year

Sometimes we forget that the players are people who want some level of privacy. It was wise of him to make that request before the checkup.
Good luck to him regardless of the results. His health is by far most important.

Seriously though David wouldn’t most commentators lose their job with that kind of completely fabricated medical update on Ross in a nationally televised game? I anxiously await Fowler’s apology to Ross, Dabo, the university and all the fans for irresponsible speculation on a young mans future.

I SO hope Justyn is able to play again. While I would love to see him in orange, as long as he is physically capable of playing - be it at the next level or returning for one more year at Clemson, I just pray he can play again!
God Bless young man!

Thanks David, this sounds reasonable and is consistent with Mike Williams' recovery time. I sure hope Justyn is able to return at some point in the future, but his long term health is what is important here.

Justyn’s situation was apparently congenital rather than from injury so there would be no correlation between his “recovery time “ and Mike Williams .
Best wishes for this outstanding young man and his future success .
