After a relatively healthy season opener against Clemson, the LSU Tigers suffered multiple injuries to key players in last week's win over Louisiana Tech. Heading into the SEC opener against Florida, several Tigers appear to be in line to return to the field.

LSU Tigers Week 3 injury report

DT Zion Williams - OUT

Williams is the only player listed as OUT in the official LSU injury report. The freshman defensive tackle didn't play against Clemson in the opener, and went down with an undisclosed injury against Louisiana Tech last week. His timeline to return remains unknown at this time.

TE Trey'Dez Green - Questionable

Green suffered a sprained MCL against Louisiana Tech, and on Monday, was given a status of questionable for Saturday's matchup vs Florida by Brian Kelly. That status remains, and Kelly noted on Thursday that Green will probably be a game-time decision. Green hauled in the game-winning touchdown pass against Clemson, and his massive 6-foot-7 frame makes for a great red zone target for Garrett Nussmeier. It would be a huge boost for the Tigers if Green is able to suit up against the Gators.

OL Braelin Moore - Probable

Kelly says that starting center Braelin Moore is good to go for Saturday. Moore suffered a left ankle sprain on the first play from scrimmage against Louisiana Tech and was unable to return. Moore was able to practice each day this week, with Kelly stating that he took all the first-team reps on Thursday. The offensive line - and offense as a whole - struggled in Moore's absence, so getting him back will be a welcome sight for Tiger fans.

WR Destyn Hill - Probable

Florida State transfer wide receiver Destyn Hill broke a bone in his hand after playing just two snaps against Clemson in the season opener. The following Monday, Hill underwent a procedure that required a plate to be inserted into his hand. However, Kelly said that he didn't expect Hill to miss much time. He sat out against Louisiana Tech, but given his status of probable, now appears close to returning to the field on Saturday against Florida.
