Syracuse Quarterback Steve Angeli Leaves Clemson Game on Crutches and in a Protective Boot
Steve Angeli, Syracuse's starting quarterback and the nation's leading passer, left the game with a non-contact lower left leg injury and may miss several weeks, Coach Fran Brown said.
- Syracuse quarterback Steve Angeli left the game against Clemson on September 20, 2025, walking off on crutches with a protective boot on his left foot.
- Angeli suffered a non-contact lower left leg injury late in the third quarter while running from a defender, having briefly exited and returned early with a knee wrap.
- Prior to his injury, Angeli guided Syracuse to a comfortable advantage by completing more than half of his pass attempts for nearly 250 yards and throwing a pair of touchdown passes; he was then replaced by redshirt sophomore Rickie Collins, who added a touchdown pass in the third quarter.
- Syracuse secured a 34-21 victory over Clemson despite an injury setback, improving their record to 3-1 overall and 1-0 in ACC play. Coach Fran Brown emphasized the importance of standing together and providing strong support for their injured teammate to ensure his recovery.
- The injury sidelines Angeli for an expected few weeks, forcing Syracuse to rely on Collins, and the team prepares to host Duke next Saturday without their starting quarterback.
