LOS ANGELES -- USC defensive end Devon Kennard has suffered a tear of his pectoral muscle and is slated to undergo surgery next week, a source close to the player said Thursday night.
Kennard, a senior slated to be a starter, is expected to be out at least 2-3 months and could miss the entire 2012 season, depending on the severity of the tear, which will be determined next week.

Looking at their roster, DE seems to be a position they don't have a ton of depth at. Wonder if they will just move someone like Christian Heyward outside or drop one of the OLB into a 3 point stance? Either way, this probably isn't how USC wanted the summer to go.

Also, reports are Robert Woods is still bothered by his ankle injury, although it didn't restrict him to much last year.
Now hearing rumors that reserve RB DJ Morgan has turf toe, which could make the depth chart even more attractive to Silas Redd. Also fairly reliable sourced rumors that Redd sent his transcript to USC.

Kennard is a big loss.

I usually find them off of Reddit tbh.
The injuries are crucial, but I'd rather have it now than during the season.

Re: SCs D depth takes a hit
Hate to see young men get hurt. Same thing I said last year when Arizona thought they might be without Criner, I hope he gets back playing ASAP. Don't wish injuries on anyone and I want to be play everyone when they're at 100%
