Key Clemson DL to miss NC State game with medical issue

Clemson defensive lineman Bryan Bresee will not play on Saturday night vs. NC State, the program confirmed on Saturday afternoon.

TigersIllustrated’s Larry Williams was first to report the news, citing a kidney-related issue. Bresee reportedly spent time in the hospital this week. However, the issue is not expected to be a longterm problem.

Here’s a statement from Clemson spokesman Ross Taylor, obtained by TigerIllustrated:

“Bryan Bresee experienced a non-football medical issue that required bloodwork and observation this week. The Bresee family received good news on those tests late this week, and this is not expected to be a long-term issue.”

Bresee is a major loss for Clemson’s defensive line in this contest. He’s one of Clemson’s most talented defensive players.

On a personal level for the Bresee family, it’s also another tough situation. Bryan’s younger sister, Ella, passed away last month after a battle with cancer. ESPN’s College GameDay aired a tribute to her story on Saturday morning

.

Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. ET.
