11/12/19 - *Sage Surratt, rJr/2021, Wake Forest, 6-3, 209 (DS#24 WR) + More +

Wake Forest receiver Sage Surratt will miss the rest of the season with an unspecified injury that will require surgery. Coach Dave Clawson disclosed the severity of Surratt's injury Tuesday but did not provide any further details. The redshirt sophomore appeared to injure his shoulder in the second half of the Demon Deacons' loss at Virginia Tech last week. Surratt ranks fifth nationally and first among players from power conferences with 1,001 yards receiving, and is tied for fifth in the FBS with 11 touchdown catches. He was a key component of a Wake Forest offense that ranks 11th nationally and second in the Atlantic Coast Conference with an average of 314.1 yards passing. Wake Forest (7-2, 3-2) visits No. 3 Clemson (10-0, 7-0) on Saturday. - AP College Football

11/02/19 - Jamie Newman, rSr/2021, Wake Forest, 6-3, 234 (DS#10 QB) + More +

The pylon was in sight for Wake Forest's Jamie Newman as he cut through the defense on the way for a score in his return from a shoulder injury. That's when the quarterback extended his arms to each side, ball in his left hand, as he crossed the goal line in a fleeting celebration that marked the start of the 23rd-ranked Demon Deacons' 44-10 victory over North Carolina State on Saturday. "If Jamie could go, he was going to go," Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson said. "And Jamie could go. So he went." Newman threw for three touchdowns and ran for two scores, showing no signs of trouble from the injury that had sidelined him for one game and part of another. His status was uncertain -- at least according to Clawson's public comments -- ahead of the long-running instate series, though his performance was anything but.

Newman threw for 287 yards and ran for 30 more before checking out late in the third quarter. Clawson said he encouraged the 6-foot-4, 230-pound redshirt junior with a physical running style to slide or step out of bounds to avoid taking extra hits in his return. Not that Newman sounded worried. "I felt great, felt great all week," Newman said, "and I still feel great now." That helps explain why Newman and the Demon Deacons (7-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) had this one wrapped up early. By the end, the school said, the 34-point margin was its largest ever against an ACC opponent at its BB&T Field home since September 1968. - Wake Forest/AP College Football
