"LSU linebacker Whit Weeks is considered doubtful for the 10th-ranked Tigers' game at Vanderbilt on Saturday, sources told ESPN. Weeks has not been ruled out, however, as sources said he still wants to warm up and attempt to play as he battles a bone bruise in his ankle. Weeks has been limited in practice and he's been spotted in a boot."
"Weeks' presence in the game would be significant, as Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia is averaging a career high 5.9 yards per carry and has 352 rushing yards this season. Pavia is also completing a career-high 71.4% of his passes, with 14 touchdowns and just four interceptions. LSU sophomore linebacker Davhon Keys is expected to get an uptick in snaps if Weeks can't go or is limited. He led the team with 14 tackles in a win over Florida earlier this year."
Whit Weeks is doubtful for LSU's game at Vanderbilt due to a bone bruise in his ankle. He has been limited in practice and has been seen in a boot, but he still plans to warm up and attempt to play. Weeks is a first-team All-SEC linebacker in 2024, leading LSU in quarterback hurries and ranking fifth in tackles this season. Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia poses a dual threat with 352 rushing yards and a 71.4% completion rate. Davhon Keys is expected to receive more snaps if Weeks is limited or unavailable. Whit is one of three brothers on the LSU roster; West Weeks currently leads the team in tackles and Whit led LSU last season with 125 tackles.
