Jamauri McClure News, Rumors, Updates - Tulane Green Wave

Slated to sit out Friday McClure is unavailable for Friday's game versus UNC Charlotte, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact McClure is set to be sidelined once again for the Green Wave after he missed the first four games of the season. The tailback played in each of the last three contests and totaled 15 carries for 43 yards, but he'll be sidelined once again and will look to return in Week 10 against Tulsa.

Notches four carries McClure compiled four carries for two yards during Saturday's 42-19 defeat against Texas-San Antonio.

Impact McClure saw minimal involvement out of the backfield Saturday, seemingly continuing to handle a restricted workload. The running back logged four carries in his third appearance of the campaign after missing the opening month while recovering from a foot injury. He figures to carve out a prominent role in the backfield following a 2025 campaign where he rushed for 540 yards and two scores on 83 attempts. He will look to see more carries in Week 10 against a struggling Charlotte defense.

OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Remains limited in win McClure tallied six carries for 18 yards during Friday's 31-17 win versus Memphis.

Impact McClure suited up for his second consecutive game after making his season debut last week against Army, where he returned from an early-season foot injury. He recorded six carries for 18 yards on the ground. His workload appears to be monitored as Tulane seemingly eases him back into live action, allowing Johnnie Daniels and Maurice Turner to maintain primary roles in the backfield. It remains to be seen if he will see more carries against UTSA in Week 8.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Decent start to 2026 McClure (foot) logged five carries for 25 yards during Saturday's 20-17 loss to the Army.

Impact McClure eased into action Saturday, which makes sense since he sat out a month of games recovering from injury. Though the running back was limited to just five rushing attempts, by averaging as many yards per carry, he is a promising option heading into the second half of Tulane's 2026 season. Last year, McClure averaged 6.5 yards on 83 carries, good enough for 540 yards of offense.

OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 6 McClure (foot) is questionable for Saturday's game at Army.

Impact Even with the benefit of a bye week, McClure's foot has not quickly healed to the point that Tulane can comfortably rule him available for Week 6 against a run-heavy Army. The running back is looking for his first counting stats this season and engaging in a battle of the running game would be an opportune time for him to return.

OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Out once again McClure (foot) is out for Saturday's matchup against Southern Mississippi, per Pete Thamel of ESPN.com.

Impact McClure will miss yet another game for the Green Wave, marking his fourth straight missed contest to start the 2026 season due to a foot injury. The 5-foot-10 running back will be hoping to use the team's upcoming bye week to progress through his recovery in time for a return against Army on October 10.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out Saturday McClure (foot) did not play in Saturday's 31-20 loss to Kansas State.

Impact McClure was reportedly nearing his return ahead of the matchup, but he ultimately was not active. The starting ball carrier will now turn his attention to getting back on the field this Saturday against Southern Mississippi.

SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Drawing closer to return McClure (foot) could be back next week against Southern Mississippi, but is almost assuredly on track for the conference opener Oct. 10 versus Army, per Guerry Smith of The New Orl...

Impact McClure has been battling a foot injury since the beginning of fall camp, and this report is positive news that he could be ready in time for conference play. The running back had a breakout 2025 campaign with Tulane where he rushed for 540 yards and two touchdowns on 83 attempts. In his absence to begin the season, Jaylin Lucas and Johnnie Daniels have gotten the bulk of the carries in the backfield.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

In line to sit Week 3 McClure (foot) is expected to sit out Saturday's game at Kansas State, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact McClure's doubtful availability continues the likelihood of him sitting out another game for Tulane, whose 2026 season has yet to include his participation because of a foot injury. Before then, he had logged 540 rushing yards for the Green Wave, and having his expertise would be clinical against a Power Conference team in Kansas State. In his place, Jaylin Lucas and Johnnie Daniels have gotten a lion's share of Tulane carries.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Inactive for Week 2 McClure (foot) did not play during Saturday's 28-24 win against South Alabama.

Impact McClure's absence left the Tulane team without its top running back against South Alabama. The unavailability allowed Jaylin Lucas to break out, providing competition for McClure beyond just Maurice Turner.

SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Viewed as likely GTD McClure (foot) is viewed as a likely game-time call for Saturday's game versus South Alabama, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact McClure couldn't give it a go in the opener against Duke, and his status remains up in the air heading into Week 2. More information should surface as kickoff draws closer, but look for Johnnie Daniels, Maurice Turner and Jaylin Lucas to play larger roles again if McClure isn't up to the task.

SEPTEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Won't face Duke McClure (foot) is unavailable at Duke on Saturday, per Pete Thamel of ESPN.com.

Impact McClure is expected to be the Green Wave's top ball-carrier this season after he ran for 540 yards and two scores on 6.5 yards per carry last fall. However, he'll be forced to sit out the opener against the Blue Devils, which should pave the way for more carries for Maurice Turner and Johnnie Daniels. He'll look to return in Week 2 versus South Alabama.

SEPTEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Officially questionable for Week 1 McClure (foot) is questionable for Tulane's season opener Sept. 5 at Duke, Guerry Smith of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

Impact It looks like McClure's injured foot will be a theme throughout Tulane's fall camp, as he is officially questionable for the Green Wave's season opener, even though it is multiple weeks away. Considering that they open their regular season in a relatively difficult fashion, against a Power Conference team, having him available for Week 1 would be in demand. After all, McClure significantly improved from 2024 to 2025, with the latter year including the running back's career-best 540 rushing attempts and two touchdowns.

AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with left foot injury McClure is dealing with a left foot injury and could miss the season opener against Duke on Sep. 5, Guerry Smith of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

Impact McClure watched Tuesday's practice from a scooter, and head coach Will Hall said the running back will be back early in the season, though the opener against the Blue Devils might be too soon. With McClure out, expect Maurice Turner and Jaylin Lucas to see expanded roles out of the backfield.

AUGUST 11 • ROTOWIRE

Feeling healthy for fall camp McClure (shoulder) expressed that he is feeling healthy and ready for Tulane's fall camp.

Impact McClure was previously expected to be a full participant for fall camp and has now personally confirmed that he feels healthy following spring shoulder surgery. The running back is coming off a breakout season with Tulane, recording 83 carries for 540 yards and two touchdowns. He will the backfield this year, and fall practices will give him the opportunity to test his shoulder in pads.

AUGUST 6 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be full-go in fall McClure (shoulder) is expected to be full-go in fall camp, Patrick Harkness of TheKneaux.com reports.

Impact McClure underwent shoulder surgery in the spring, during which he was limited to non-contact portions because of the procedure. On the plus side, he is expected to be ready by fall camp, so he will enter it probable even though the surgery temporarily limited his performance.

Impact McClure has been listed as questionable on previous Tulane injury reports, only to suit up for all but one game this season.
