The Louisiana sun beat down on LSU’s practice field Tuesday as Lane Kiffin’s squad opened Week 2 of spring ball. Notable personnel developments emerged from both huddles.

Injuries and Rehabilitation

Linebacker Whit Weeks watched from the sidelines. His right leg was still in a protective boot after last season’s fracture. Defensive coaches pointed him toward rehabilitation equipment while discussing his potential return timeline.

Defensive tackle Stephiylan Green made his spring debut. He wore a purple practice jersey and showed visible enthusiasm as he exploded through tackling dummies.
