(WLTX) --- Clemson's receiving corps is getting short on numbers with the news that All-American Sammy Watkins will miss the game with an abdominal virus.

The Tigers were already missing Martavius Bryant who is nursing an injured groin and will miss the next two games.

According to head coach Dabo Swinney, Watkins practiced Tuesday and Wednesday, but took himself out each day. Swinney said his condition worsened and after consulting with a doctor, the decision was made for Watkins to remain in Clemson over the weekend.
