LSU received some encouraging injury news Wednesday night as the Tigers released their initial SEC injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup against Auburn.

Tight end Trey'Dez Green, who has missed recent games with a knee injury, was not listed on the report, a positive sign for his potential return to action this weekend.

Two other key LSU players were also absent from the report after suffering injuries in last Saturday's win over Mississippi State.

Defensive end Princewill Umanmielen left the game in the first quarter with an upper-body/head injury, while wide receiver Jackson Harris suffered an ankle injury. Harris told reporters earlier this week that he expected to be ready for Auburn.

The Tigers have four players ruled out for Saturday, while freshman defensive tackle Richard Anderson is listed as doubtful.

LSU:

OUT
LB #7 Whit Weeks
S #10 Dashawn Spears
WR #15 Phillip Wright III
LB #26 Charles Ross II

DOUBTFUL
DT #88 Richard Anderson

Auburn:

OUT
OL #71 Tai Buster
TE #85 Hunter Herring

QUESTIONABLE
DL #99 Saint Farrior

Both teams will release updated injury reports Thursday and Friday ahead of Saturday's game.

I keep seeing posts on an Auburn LB starter not being available. But nothing listed. Fake News?

He's no longer with the team so he's not listed on the injury report.

Is that Xavier Atkins their best defensive player who was obviously a starting LB and has been dismissed from the team?

If he’s healthy — like better than 80% —- he needs to play. We need every win we can get to still be in the CFP

Suit up for Auburn, but dont play unless needed. Got an extra week coming up to get healthy for the final stretch.

Sit TreDez….a couple of weeks further healing will do wonders for him. We will need him for the stretch coming up.
