Notre Dame’s reaction to Lawrence sitting on Saturday

CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence will travel with the top-ranked Tigers to Notre Dame this week, although he will not play due to the coronavirus.

Coach Dabo Swinney said Tuesday that Lawrence is doing well, participating in team meetings in preparation to play the fourth-ranked Fighting Irish on Saturday night.

Swinney says Lawrence will be through with his 10-day quarantine, but must still sit out due to the cardiac testing protocol the ACC has for those athletes who contract COVID-19.

Lawrence tested positive last week and missed his team’s 34-28 comeback victory over Boston College last week.
