Trevor Lawrence feeling ‘sore’ after big hit from Keontra Smith
Trevor Lawrence took a big hit during Clemson’s 42-17 win over Miami on Saturday night, and he is feeling the effects from it.
Miami striker Keontra Smith drilled Lawrence in the midsection during the third quarter of the game. Lawrence went down in pain but was able to return to lead a touchdown drive. Smith ended up ejected after the hit was reviewed for targeting.
