Clemson football’s Christopher Vizzina forces freshman QB to start vs. Bill Belichick, UNC

Clemson football quarterback Christopher Vizzina has suffered an injury that will lead this freshman player to start against UNC.

After the Clemson football team’s embarrassing loss to the LSU Tigers in Week 1, the team would bounce back with a 22-7 win over Georgia Southern on Saturday, though a quarterback injury will change the plans for the program. With Clemson football head coach Dabo Swinney starting Christopher Vizzina to begin the season, he won’t be able to play in next Saturday’s contest against the University of North Carolina.

According to Matt Zenitz at CBS Sports, Vizzina sustained an elbow injury in Saturday’s win over Georgia Southern, with the expectation being that he misses Week 3. Meaning, freshman quarterback Tait Reynolds will be the starter for the Tigers.

“Clemson quarterback Christopher Vizzina suffered an elbow injury vs. Georgia Southern yesterday and is currently expected to miss at least the Tigers’ upcoming game against North Carolina, sources tell [CBS Sports],” Zenitz wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Freshman Tait Reynolds is expected to start vs. UNC.”
