Sophomore defensive tackle Jahkeem Stewart is apparently on crutches with a foot injury and expected to be out 3-4 weeks.
Remember, Stewart underwent surgery last November for a stress fracture in his foot that bothered him throughout last season.
The question now is whether this is going to be a recurring injury and something to be concerned about even after he returns. He was fighting for a starting job during training camp. That doesn’t matter. What matters is that he gets healthy and the situation with his foot gets resolved.
KAM: Jahkeem don’t like it!
DON: Fight On , Jahkeem!

Not good. Plus he was a leader on the team in terms of toughness, work ethic, giving 100%.
He had surgery last year so it would seem unlikely it is a reoccurrence of the same issue. But at 295 lbs, that is a lot of load on those small foot bones…

DON: With SC it is always about the porous defense.
KAM: I know how the offense can help the defense. Have at least a 10-point lead at all times during the 4th quarter

….And avoid Riley’s pet pitfall: Never try to nurse less than a TD lead in the fourth quarter —stay on the attack.
