LSU tight end Trey'Dez Green caught a 19-yard pass early in the fourth quarter against Ole Miss, took multiple hits from defenders, and stayed down before medical staff helped him off. ABC cameras showed him limping to the sideline in visible pain. He did not return. LSU radio, per Cory Diaz, reported him doubtful to return. He was later carted toward the locker room and seen on crutches in street clothes. Ole Miss won 32-24. Green finished with four catches for 60 yards, leading LSU in receiving. His longest gain was 23 yards on third-and-11. He entered with 10 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown in the first two games and ended at 14 catches for 222 yards. After he left, Scott Starzyk kicked a 23-yard field goal to tie the game 24-24. Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss then scored on a 14-yard scramble, and a two-point conversion on a direct snap to JT Lindsey made it 32-24. What is contested: one account has Ole Miss leading 24-21 at the injury; other framing places the 24-24 tie after he exited. The early LSU deficit is reported as 24-7 or 17-0. The injury is described as lower-body, right-leg, or knee; one report first cited an abdominal hit before Pete Nakos identified a right-leg injury. The extent of the injury is not established in these reports.
Where do you stand?
How it spread
What each side asserts, disputes — or leaves out entirely.
Whose framing of this story rings truest to you?
Green's four catches for sixty yards were key so far, and the Tigers need someone to step up if he stays out.
That lower body injury could force some quick changes to how they attack Ole Miss in the fourth with the score tied.
LSU was building momentum in the second half but losing Green as their top option leaves a big hole in the passing game at a critical time.
