LSU Linebacker Whit Weeks Out Against Alabama; Thin Ranks a Concern for Tigers

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The LSU Tigers will face the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide tonight without junior linebacker Whit Weeks, who has been officially ruled out due to a persistent bone bruise on his ankle. This marks Weeks’ third straight game sidelined by the injury, sustained during the October 11th game against South Carolina.

The SEC’s mandated student-athlete availability report, updated just 90 minutes before kickoff, confirmed Weeks’ absence. Earlier in the week, his status had been downgraded from questionable to doubtful.

Adding to LSU’s woes, freshman linebacker Zach Weeks, Whit’s younger brother, is also out for the game, further depleting the team’s linebacker depth. Davhon Keys and Tylen Singleton are expected to step up and share playing time alongside senior West Weeks and Harold Perkins at the “Star” position in the middle of LSU’s defense.

The Tigers (5-3, 2-3 SEC) are already without left tackle Tyree Adams and defensive end Gabriel Reliford, who have been sidelined for several weeks. The injury situation presents a significant challenge as they face the formidable Crimson Tide (7-1, 5-0) in Bryant-Denny Stadium.
