broke a bone in his hand.

"Clelin is on the bubble," Swinney said. "His break in his hand is a little more serious [than Mark Fields]. He has a cast on his hand too. He's a guy right now we could go either way with. We are just going to have to see how it all plays out in the next few weeks. Probably will not make a decision for a while until 100 percent."
