The outcome of Saturday night’s game in Oxford, Mississippi, wasn’t the only loss for LSU, as the Tigers were also dealt a couple of blows on the injury front during the 32-24 loss<\/a> to Ole Miss<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An MRI on Sunday showed that standout defensive back Dashawn Spears<\/a> sustained a season-ending ACL injury, sources tell CBS Sports. LSU<\/a> star tight end Trey’Dez Green<\/a> is also set to miss time due to an apparent knee injury, though — on a positive note — Green didn’t tear any ligaments, according to a Facebook post from his mother.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear how much time Green, a first-round NFL draft<\/a> prospect, will miss.<\/p>\n

Surgery won’t be needed, per Green’s mother. However, she noted that he did sustain “some bad sprains and bruises.”<\/p>\n

“He will miss some games and that’s (OK),” his mother wrote in the Facebook post. “Most importantly is getting better. Everything will fall in place.”<\/p>\n

As for Spears, his injury is a tough development.<\/p>\n

The junior was breaking out to the point that, even with him being in his first season as a full-time starter, NFL<\/a> scouts had mentioned him recently as an emerging prospect for next year’s NFL draft.<\/p>\n

LSU coach Lane Kiffin said after the game on Saturday that neither injury “seemed very well,” but didn’t provide any updates during a media conference call on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The next game for Kiffin and the No. 10 Tigers comes at home against No. 23 Texas A&M<\/a> on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The outcome of Saturday night’s game in Oxford, Mississippi, wasn’t the only loss for LSU, as the Tigers…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":855254,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[1607,338139,399,6342,398,396,397,19502,99,1784,305866],"class_list":["post-855253","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ncaa-football","tag-college-football","tag-dashawn-spears","tag-football","tag-lsu-tigers","tag-ncaa","tag-ncaa-football","tag-ncaafootball","tag-ole-miss-rebels","tag-sports","tag-texas-am-aggies","tag-treydez-green"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/855253","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=855253"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/855253\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/855254"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=855253"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=855253"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=855253"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
