LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt is listed as doubtful for LSU’s upcoming game against Ole Miss as Lane Kiffin returns to Oxford. Multiple outlets report that the SEC injury report for the matchup includes Leavitt’s questionable status.
CBS Sports and other reports describe the listing as a surprise and indicate it is tied to an upper-body injury, noting that Leavitt did not throw during the most recent practice. The Athletic and Yahoo Sports both note that injury reports in the SEC are required, but they focus on the fact that the designation appears on the report without additional detail in the public reporting beyond the questionable/doubtful label.
With Kiffin’s return drawing attention, the different coverage emphasizes either the practicality of the injury reporting system or the specific practice-related detail mentioned by CBS Sports. Together, the reports outline Leavitt’s status and the circumstances prompting the doubt heading into the game.
