No. 25 LSU will reportedly be missing a key lineman in Saturday’s game against No. 8 Tennessee.
TigerDroppings reported Friday evening, per sources, that LSU starting left tackle Will Campbell will not play against Tennessee. After TigerDroppings published its initial story, Campbell posted on Instagram, sharing a photo of himself in a hospital bed, captioned, “Appreciate all the prayers, I’ll be back.” Wilson Alexander of NOLA.com describes Campbell’s status for Saturday as “unclear.”
Neither report states why Campbell appeared to be in the hospital Friday.

Campbell, a highly touted true freshman from Monroe, Louisiana, has started all 5 games for the Tigers at left tackle in the 2022 season. Cameron Wire and Marcus Dumervil are listed as the backups for Campbell on LSU’s depth chart.
LSU and Tennessee are set to kick off from Tiger Stadium at 11 a.m. CT/noon ET. The game will air on ESPN.
