LOS ANGELES — Romello Height, the edge rusher who transferred from Auburn to USC to stabilize the Trojans' pass rush, is likely to miss the rest of this season after undergoing surgery on his injured shoulder this week.
Height played only briefly through the Trojans' first two games while dealing with the lingering injury. He sat out last Saturday's meeting with Fresno State, in the hope that his shoulder might improve with rest, coach Lincoln Riley said at the time.
A few days later, Height had surgery, which Riley said Thursday will require "a long-term recovery." He then clarified that the redshirt sophomore is likely to miss the rest of the season.
