Mike Elko confirmed after the game that Bussey will miss the remainder of the season, leaving the Aggies without one of their most versatile offensive weapons as they attempt to rebound in Baton Rouge.<\/p>\n<p>Full Texas A&amp;M Injury Report vs. LSU<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/01m38esan08dp88anmme.jpg\" alt=\"Texas A&amp;M vs. LSU injury report\" title=\"Texas A&amp;M vs. LSU injury report\" width=\"0\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"76\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Texas A&amp;M vs. LSU injury report | secsports.com<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7c\">Running back Jamarion Marrow and wide receiver Ashton Bethel-Roman are both questionable, according to Wednesday\u2019s initial report. The two occupied the same designation entering last week, although neither ultimately played against Kentucky. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7h\">Last week\u2019s initial report also included wide receiver TK Norman and defensive end Anto Saka as questionable.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7m\">For anyone unfamiliar with the SEC\u2019s availability reports, questionable essentially means a player has a 50\/50 chance of playing. The designation can change as updated reports are released heading into kickoff.<\/p>\n<p>Aggies Must Move Forward Without Terry Bussey<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/01m38eqme8b77eg7458s.jpg\" alt=\"Texas A&amp;M Aggies wide receiver Terry Bussey\" title=\"Texas A&amp;M Aggies wide receiver Terry Bussey\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"83\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Texas A&amp;M Aggies wide receiver Terry Bussey (2) runs with the football during the second half against the Utah State Aggies at Kyle Field.  | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"89\">Marrow and Bethel-Roman are obviously worth monitoring, but Bussey\u2019s absence carries much larger implications than Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8e\">The junior had already shown that he was going to be a major piece of the Aggies\u2019 offense, with his versatility allowing Texas A&amp;M to use him in several different roles. As such, there is no simple replacement for everything he provided.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8j\">So who helps replace Bussey? It starts with the young receivers, as Aaron Gregory, Kelshaun Johnson and TK Norman will all be asked to do more.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8o\">The receiving corps still has<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/college\/tamu\/football\/texas-am-avoids-major-injury-scare-with-mario-craver\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> Mario Craver<\/a> and Isaiah Horton, while Bethel-Roman\u2019s potential return would help restore some of the depth lost with Bussey. But the depth has still been hurt, which isn\u2019t ideal for the Aggies\u2019 long-term chances of success.<\/p>\n<p>LSU Will Also Be Without a Major Offensive Weapon<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-15\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8y\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/college\/tamu\/football\/texas-am-avoids-major-injury-scare-with-mario-craver\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Texas A&amp;M<\/a> isn\u2019t the only team missing an important piece.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-16\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"93\">LSU tight end Trey\u2019Dez Green is listed as out after suffering a lower-body injury during last week\u2019s 32-24 loss to Ole Miss. Green was lighting it up against the Rebels before leaving as his Tigers eventually lost a heartbreaker.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-17\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"98\">His absence removes one of LSU\u2019s biggest matchup problems from Lane Kiffin\u2019s offense. Without him, quarterback Sam Leavitt is going to have to turn to other receiving options, none of which have the same abilities as Green.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-18\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9d\">Safety Dashawn Spears and wide receiver Phillip Wright III are also out for LSU, while cornerback Ja\u2019Keem Jackson is doubtful and safety Tamarcus Cooley is questionable, according to Wednesday\u2019s initial report.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-19\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9i\">Sign up to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/college\/tamu\/newsletter\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0our free newsletter<\/a> and follow us on<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AggiesOnSI\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0Facebook<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TAMUAggiesOnSI\" rel=\"nofollow\">\u00a0X<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tamuaggiesonsi\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0Instagram<\/a> for the latest news.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\" class=\"shrink-0\"\/>Add us as a preferred source on Google<a aria-label=\"Follow si.com on Google News\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=si.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" preventdefault:click=\"\" class=\"flex h-[30px] w-[30px] shrink-0 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-primary font-group-large text-sm font-medium text-white transition-colors hover:bg-secondary focus:bg-secondary md:w-auto md:gap-2.5 md:px-4 md:py-[5px]\" on:click=\"q-Cl4Uw_qF.js#s_lDqay9E5m5g[0]\" q:id=\"9o\">Follow<\/a><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Texas A&amp;M\u2019s initial availability report ahead of Saturday\u2019s matchup with No. 10 LSU looks remarkably similar to the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":446011,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[27,29,28],"class_list":["post-446010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-texas","tag-texas","tag-texas-headlines","tag-texas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=446010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446010\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/446011"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=446010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=446010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=446010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
