LSU's standout linebacker, Harold Perkins Jr., has suffered a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament tear, LSU coach Brian Kelly confirmed on Monday. Perkins, who was expected to enter the NFL draft after this season, will no longer be able to play for the Tigers due to this injury.
The injury occurred during the fourth quarter of LSU's recent victory over UCLA, where Perkins, a preseason AP All-America selection, was making a tackle. This unfortunate incident has brought an end to what was anticipated to be a significant season for the talented linebacker.
