LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier And LB Whit Weeks Have Been Downgraded For The Arkansas Game

LSU's quarterback Garrett Nussmeier was downgraded from probable to questionable for Saturday's game vs. Arkansas, according to the injury report released on Friday night.

Interim head coach Frank Wilson said Thursday that Nussmeier aggravated an injury in practice and listed him as probable. Now, it's unclear if he will play vs. the Razorbacks.

Nussmeier's questionable status leaves the door open for backup Michael Van Buren to make his first career start for the Tigers.

Linebacker Whit Weeks, who was listed as questionable on Thursday, has been officially ruled out vs. the Razorbacks and will now miss his fourth straight game.

Weeks has been dealing with a bone bruise on his ankle since the South Carolina game on Oct 11.

Here's the full injury report from Friday night:
