Louisville coach Jeff Brohm said Monday that linebacker Stanquan Clark underwent surgery for a lower leg injury and was “more than likely” out for the remainder of the season.

Brohm said there was a small chance Clark could return “late in the process” this year depending on his recovery time.

Clark, a four-star recruit in the Class of 2023, played in the first two games of his junior season and was injured during a 28-14 win over James Madison in Week 2. He had seven tackles this season.

He started every game for Louisville last season and racked up 76 tackles (7.5 for loss), two interceptions and two forced fumbles. That enabled the Miami native to earn honorable mention all-ACC honors.

The Cardinals (2-0) are coming off a bye week and will host Bowling Green this Saturday.
