Two Georgia Tech players who missed Saturday’s game against North Carolina are expected to be able to play this Saturday against Clemson. At his weekly news conference Monday, coach Paul Johnson said that he thought that defensive tackle Patrick Gamble and A-back TaQuon Marshall would play against the Tigers.
Gamble has missed the past two games with a head injury. Marshall’s injury is undisclosed. Marshall was knocked out of the Duke game Sept. 26 and was dressed for the North Carolina game but did not play.
Gamble’s return would be helpful. He has been part of a three-player rotation at defensive tackle with Adam Gotsis and Jabari Hunt. Marshall is part of the A-back rotation that has been beset by injuries.
“It’s just been one of those years,” Johnson said.
Johnson said he didn’t know about the status of two other players, wide receiver Micheal Summers (shoulder) and A-back Broderick Snoddy (hand). Summers has missed the past two games. Snoddy sat out the North Carolina game with his hand in a cast.
Johnson also clarified that A-back Qua Searcy, who is out for the season, has a broken leg.
