LSU football player injuries

Overview

LSU linebacker Whit Weeks suffered a significant injury during a game against Texas A&M. Initially, head coach Lane Kiffin described the injury as looking ‘really bad’ after Weeks exited the game on crutches wearing a walking boot on his right ankle.

Subsequent reports confirmed that Weeks suffered a broken lower right leg, which will sideline the defensive captain indefinitely. This injury follows a series of personnel losses for the LSU roster, including season-ending injuries to safety DaShawn Spears and tight end Trey’Dez Green, as well as long-term or season-ending injuries to several other players.
