An Upstate football coach has been cleared to return to work. The Pickens County School District says the suspension has been lifted on Daniel Head Coach Chris Stone.

He was placed on leave last week and is expected to return this Saturday. The decision to put Stone on leave came after a video went viral showing three Daniel players assaulting another teammate.

The District declined to elaborate on the decision citing that they would not comment on a personnel issue. Daniel opens their season August 22nd at Chapman.
