Twitter Reacts To USC WR Drake London's Season Ending Ankle Injury
USC wide receiver Drake London suffered a season ending ankle fracture on Saturday night against the Arizona Wildcats. Interim head coach Donte Williams confirmed the news to reporters on Sunday night via zoom.
London is arguably one of the best wide receivers in the nation and the Trojans' top target. Finishing his 2021 campaign with 88 receptions, 1,084 yards, and seven touchdowns, London has had an unprecedented season in only eight games.
Many were devastated over the news and took to social media to share their thoughts. Here are their reactions:
USC WR Kyle Ford
Just wanted to shout-out my boy @DrakeLondon_ Bro is something different and so many great things ahead. Made me a better player everyday we were out there. We got you 15 ❤️🤝 #FightOn

Media Reacts:
“From bad to worse” could be the title of this #USC season now with the news about Drake London. And in a year where he rightfully was competing for the top awards and was one of the lone bright spots in poor games. Absolutely gutted. Hope gets right in plenty of time for April

Now, who is going to do the right thing and vote Drake London an All-American even though he only had half a season's work?

(#USC should put him on the wall, I don't care if they need to use the "Reign of Troy Radio All-American Team" to justify it)
