Lane Kiffin updates on Trey'Dez Green's injury status with LSU

LSU football coach Lane Kiffin provided an update on tight end Trey'Dez Green, who has missed the last two games due to a knee injury sustained against Ole Miss. Kiffin reported that Green has stopped wearing a brace and is "getting closer" to a return, although a specific timetable remains unclear. Green had 14 receptions for 222 yards and a touchdown before his injury, and his absence has not hindered the team extensively, though stronger competition is ahead. LSU faces Kentucky and Mississippi State in the coming weeks. Kiffin believes Green could return sooner than anticipated, hoping for his involvement in games following the Tigers' bye week in November. Until Green is cleared, LSU will employ a committee approach at tight end.
