South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers has responded to punch after punch in Saturday's SEC opener against No. 17 LSU.

But the Gamecocks' freshman gunslinger sustained an injury just before halftime, one that might give him some trouble in the second half.

Just before halftime vs. the Tigers, Sellers attempted to scramble out with the football to get away from the blitz but was ultimately brought down for a sack. As Sellers went down to the ground, he sustained an ankle injury. He'd limp off the field and later into the locker room on his own power.

Sellers came out on the South Carolina sideline for the second half, but with tape on his ankle and no helmet on his head, ESPN's Holly Rowe reported South Carolina is unsure how much he can play.
