INJURY: Jordan Strachan Headed To Locker Room

Edge rusher Jordan Strachan was taken back to the locker room after sustaining an injury against Arkansas.

The injury bug continues to bite the Gamecocks, as edge rusher Jordan Strachan has gone back into the locker room with an injury.

Strachan injured his right knee against Arkansas and left the field without putting any weight on it. ESPN reported that Strachan was crying on the way to the locker room. He was also accompanied by his family, a discouraging sign.

Jordan is a fifth-year senior who is entering with his second season with the team. He played in all thirteen games last season and tallied three sacks and six tackles for loss. Strachan originally transferred from Georgia State, and in his final season with the Panthers he led the nation with 10.5 sacks.
