During Saturday’s win over Penn State, the Michigan Wolverines saw veteran cornerback Jeremy Clark go down with an injury in the fourth quarter. Immediately, there was some concern over the severity of Clark’s injury.
On Monday, Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed everyone’s worst fear when he announced Clark has suffered a torn ACL and will miss the remainder of the year.
Harbaugh says Jeremy Clark tore his ACL, is done for the season.

Clark recorded 10 tackles and three pass breakups through the first month of the season in place of All-American Jourdan Lewis.
Now, the fifth-year senior will have to determine whether to apply for another year of eligibility. According to Harbaugh, Michigan will begin looking into another year for the defensive back.
