Kayshon Boutte will not play in the Citrus Bowl on Monday against Purdue, Brian Kelly announced through a statement issued by LSU.

However, Boutte is enrolled at LSU for the spring semester.

The 6-foot, 205-pound Boutte amassed 48 receptions for 538 yards and 2 touchdowns this season. Boutte collected 6 receptions for 107 yards and a touchdown in the 50-30 loss to Georgia in the SEC Championship Game. For his career at LSU, Boutte has totaled 131 receptions for 1,782 yards, and 16 touchdowns.

About 3 weeks ago, Boutte announced his plans for the 2023 season:

“The goal is to always win a national championship at LSU and that will never change. We made strides this year but ultimately fell short. That is why I believe we can accomplish many things moving forward. I believe in this team, coaches, strength staff, nutrition staff, and training staff. It is important to follow your dreams and live with the results,” Boutte said. “While some stories will end here, mine will not…Let’s lock in and focus on the main goal of any LSU Tiger: Winning a national championship!!!”

LSU has a 9-4 overall record and the game is set for 1 p.m. ET on ABC.
