LSU linebacker Whit Weeks, a former All-SEC selection, has sustained a fracture in his lower right leg, according to sources cited by ESPN's Adam Rittenberg.
Despite the injury, sources indicated it is not believed to be season-ending, suggesting Weeks could have a path back onto the field later this year rather than facing a prolonged absence.
Weeks has been a key contributor to LSU's defense, and his availability is closely watched by the program as it navigates the remainder of its schedule. No further details on the exact timeline for his recovery or return have been disclosed.
LSU has not yet issued an official statement detailing the extent of the injury or a specific return date, and the team's coaching staff will likely provide updates on his status as the season progresses.
