Chris Hilton Jr is listed as probable, how big of an impact could he have for LSU
The Availability report was updated on Friday night and the next time we'll get an update is just prior to the game. The update on Friday gave LSU a ton of optimism as Chris Hilton Jr was listed as probable meaning, he'll most likely make his season debut on Saturday Night.
If Hilton plays its hard to gauge what kind of impact he can have as he still may not be in game shape. On one hand, LSU can use him as a decoy as the Texas A&M defense will need to respect his speed which could open things up underneath for the other receivers. On the other hand, we've seen Nussmeier just hardly miss on deep balls the last two weeks and Chris Hilton has the speed to run under any deep ball and could flip the game with one play.
How involved Chris Hilton Jr is in this game may rely on whether or not CJ Daniels is able to play on Saturday Night. Daniels was originally listed as probable but, he's been downgraded to questionable, Daniels had been dealing with a knee injury and took an unnecessary hit that should've been called in the Arkansas game. Missing Daniels for the game would be a massive blow especially as he comes off of his best game at LSU.
Outside of Daniels, the only contributor who is new to the injury report is Jordan Allen who started games for the Tigers but, didn't travel with the team last weekend.
