LSU's Chris Hilton Jr. remains questionable, Miles Frazier cleared vs. USC

As LSU prepares to begin the 2024 season in Las Vegas against USC on Sunday night, it’s dealing with a couple of injuries to starters.

During his initial injury report on Monday, coach Brian Kelly listed receiver Chris Hilton Jr. as questionable with a bone bruise while guard Miles Frazier was listed as probable.

When Kelly updated the injury report on Thursday, he provided positive updates on both. Frazier is “good to go” for Sunday’s game, and while Hilton continues to go through the process, there’s optimism he will also be available.

“Chris is still in progression and we’re hopeful that we get him ready to play. But he’s making good progress,” Kelly said.

Hilton is expected to start for the Tigers this season in what will be his fourth year with the team. He has battled injuries earlier in his career but his coming off a career-best season despite being buried on the depth chart.
