Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence has tested positive for COVID-19 and is out for Saturday's game with Boston College.
First of all, TigerNet would like to wish Lawrence the best of health including 100 percent full recovery from COVID-19. Obviously, the sports world was abuzz discussing the star quarterback on the No. 1 team in the nation being out this weekend with COVID-19. Check out the reaction from media, fans, and more on social media:
It's not how we wanted it to happen but I promise u DJ will do his part for his team until Trevor comes back. Uncle loves you boy and have fun! #UiagaleleiFamily #FamilyOverEverything #AllIn @DJUiagalelei pic.twitter.com/JZJZmYrmh8 Clemson QB and potential No. 1 pick Trevor Lawrence has tested positive for the coronavirus
Clemson Tigers were 30 point favorites against BC.
A statement from Clemson on Trevor Lawrence status is coming soon. A positive test requires a MINIMUM of 10 days out, assuming no symptoms. As we discussed during the Saban stuff, the ACC does not have a “test out” option.
Couple things to add to the Trevor stuff:
I assume we’ll get this info with the statement from Clemson. He did media Monday, so likely either Tuesday or today. If he shows no symptoms he could still be back for ND, but would not be practicing next week regardless. https://t.co/SzpX77bWdn
Saturday just got really interesting. Hopefully DJU is healthy and able to go. Excited for his opportunity.
This would mean out Saturday vs. BC ... big unknown is whether he is back for ND next week. https://t.co/E8tNqGzmjE
DJ Uiagalelei going to get some real experience sooner than we thought. Unfortunate news out of Clemson. https://t.co/LeuFn9frzg
Clemson nation calm down Jesus Christ relax!!! Next man up ?????? Clemson backup D.J. Uiagalelei was the No. 1 QB signee in the nation ... but he is a true freshman. Hasn't played that well thus far. Tigers offense has stagnated when first-team has gone to bench. ACC goes by CDC guidelines so a player who tested positive must isolate 10 days from time of positive test, so Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence also may not be available for Nov. 8 Notre Dame game
Anyone testing positive for COVID-19 is required to isolate for at least 10 days after the test before returning to practice, assuming they are no longer showing symptoms, per ACC protocol.
Boston College: thank god we don’t have to play Trevor Lawrence
And, lastly, the SEC “test out” option, which is probably something other leagues should adopt, would still not be applicable here because Lawrence is NOT asymptomatic. So, apples/oranges with the Saban situation.
Man, if only he’d added a “Go Jets” at the end… https://t.co/jJ9H7nhD1p This is good big pic stuff from Nicole, who has covered this virus nationally all season long. https://t.co/R8rqhL5TIr
Some clarity from @aadelsonESPN - 10-day clock starts from onset of symptoms or positive test, so Lawrence could return before Saturday depending on that timeline. Lawrence does not live w/teammates, hence no contact tracing issues (vast majority of which are roommate related). People worrying and freaking out about the Notre Dame game for Trevor Lawrence. That's not what's important. His health and future are the ONLY things that matter. Trevor Lawrence’s COVID test was taken Wednesday and that counts as day one in his 10-day countdown to be eligible to play next Saturday against Notre Dame, per source. It’s possible he had symptoms earlier, which could even push up his eligibility to play if he tests negative. https://t.co/3xHIFoNAu7
"There are a lot of questions out of Clemson that are still TBD"@BruceFeldmanCFB has the latest on Trevor Lawrence's status for this weekend and beyond after testing positive for COVID-19 ?? pic.twitter.com/yNZyQyAZs3 Per sources, Lawrence's 10-day window will be over before Notre Dame game. But: how his symptoms evolve and cardiac eval will decide things. He also would obviously be heading into the game with maybe one practice, maybe none. IN SOLIDARITY WITH TREVOR, I WILL ALSO BE IN ISOLATION FOR 10 DAYS #IISOLATEWITHTREVOR Trevor Lawrence has the best win percentage (.969) by any FBS starting QB over the last 40 years, among those with at least 25 starts.
On the Highest single day so far for new COVID cases in America... the highest rated CFB player is among them. As with all those affected, wishing @Trevorlawrencee a rapid recovery.
Here's the thing: I thought loser of Clemson/ND had a chance to finish top four even WITH Lawrence in lineup. If those teams split, assuming they face each other in ACCCG, and it's their only loss, who's to say committee isn't talking about BOTH of them for top-four spots?

Now pulled off board. https://t.co/XnNxRqVxXp
1.) I’m told no issues w/contact tracing. That’s HUGE.
However, DJ Uiagalelei and Tyson Phommachanh have both been battling injuries, too. Whether either is at 100% is a question.
Clemson's games within the next 10 days:
• vs. Boston College
• at No. 4 Notre Dame https://t.co/ETbwsDlowc
