LSU Injury Report: Several starters uncertain for game vs. OU

On Monday afternoon, interim head coach Frank Wilson held his final game week press conference of the regular season as LSU prepares to take on Oklahoma on Saturday in Norman. Included in his time at the podium was a lengthy injury report regarding players who were limited against Western Kentucky or did not play.

The Tigers will need all hands on deck as they look to take down the Sooners on Saturday, who are playing for a shot in the CFB Playoffs. Here’s everyone he talked about along with some others to watch.

CB Mansoor Delane — Probable

“He was good this morning after yesterday’s treatment. We’re hopeful he’ll be able to play in full capacity in this game.” – Wilson

Delane went through warm ups for LSU vs. Western Kentucky and was suited up, but did not enter the game.

RB Caden Durham — Probable

“More of a neck than a concussion protocol. It was a five technique that looped inside that jammed him. I think he’s hopeful on this Monday. I think he’ll be ready to go. We won’t do anything with him on Tuesday and maybe put him in a red shirt on Wednesday.” – Wilson

Durham split snaps with Harlem Berry until an injury knocked him out in the second half.

LB Whit Weeks — Probable

“Whit came out of the game feeling good. We wanted to limit his opportunities so that he could be at his best in this game. I’m hopeful he will be able to play at his best from a health standpoint in this upcoming game.” – Wilson

Weeks returned to the field after a nearly two month absence and got to play alongside his brothers in Tiger Stadium.

WR Aaron Anderson — Probable

“He’s gotten treatment and he’ll be hopeful as well. We’ll see how this week goes.” – Wilson

Anderson has been beaten up all year for LSU and never seemed right. We’ll see if he can get right by Saturday.

OL Tyree Adams — Doubtful

“He is progressing. He has a chance, albeit a slim chance, probably more likely for the bowl game. He’s on pace to have a chance to play in this game.” – Wilson

Don’t expect Adams to play in this game, considering the severity of his ankle injury, which required surgery about a month ago.

OL Ory Williams — Doubtful

Williams played in most of the game against WKU, but left and did not return after suffering an ankle injury.

OL Braelin Moore — Doubtful

Moore has been battling through some ankle discomfort all year at LSU but left the game against Western Kentucky with a foot injury.

*** He did not comment on the status of quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, but it seems from the outside as though his season is done as he continues to heal from the upper body injury.
