CFB: Notre Dame WR Floyd undergoes surgery, likely out for season


Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Notre Dame wide receiver Michael Floyd underwent surgery Sunday for a broken left collar bone and is likely out for the remainder of the regular season.

Coach Charlie Weis said there is a chance Floyd could be back if the Irish go to a bowl game.

Floyd, who went into the game second in the nation in receiving yards at 160 yards a game, was injured falling to the ground trying to make a touchdown catch. Floyd has 13 catches for 358 and five touchdowns.

Weis also said he expects quarterback Jimmy Clausen to play Saturday against Purdue. Clausen injured his right foot when he was sacked in the second quarter. Weis said Clausen will undergo an MRI.
