— Glen West (@glenwest21) January 1, 2026Weeks is an NFL-caliber linebacker who could have entered the 2026 NFL Draft, but his decision to stay makes a lot of sense due to his up and down, injury-riddled 2025 campaign. Unfortunately, Weeks suffered an ankle injury against Baylor in the Texas Bowl at the end of the 2024 season, which bled over into 2025 and caused him to miss all but 6 games for the Tigers. Of the six games Weeks appeared in, only four came during or after the month of October.
Weeks is an absolute monster when healthy. The LSU linebacker put up 120 total tackles in 2024 while also adding 3.5 sacks, 4 pass deflections, 2 forced fumbles and 1 interception. With that, Lane Kiffin retains an All-SEC defender to build his first LSU defense around.
