USC wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster looked to have suffered a major injury in the 48-28 loss to Oregon in Eugene on Saturday. However, after going down without contact in the second quarter, the sophomore returned to action and caught five passes for 57 yards.

USC head coach Clay Helton said that Smith-Schuster "twisted" his ankle, but was fine on Sunday. 

Smith-Schuster suffered a fracture in his right hand on Oct. 31 against Cal and has been playing through another injury to his leg his midseason.

"He's not 100%," Helton said, per the Los Angeles Times. "When you get to Week 12 and you do the things he's doing, you have pain. And he's dealt with pain each and every week from Game 5 on."
