BATON ROUGE, La. — In the third quarter of No. 15 LSU football's matchup against No. 9 Alabama on Saturday, Nov. 7, at Tigers Stadium, LSU right tackle Weston Davis went down with an injury. Listed at 6-foot-6 and 315 pounds, the sophomore lineman went down after a big-time play for the Tigers on a 32-yard pass from quarterback Sam Leavitt to wide receiver Jackson Harris. It appeared that Davis hurt his ankle, and he was assisted off the field and taken into the medical tent. Playing in his place for the remainder of the Tigers' drive was junior right tackle Sean Thompkins Jr. Davis exited the medical tent on crutches and headed in the direction of LSU's locker room.

At the time of Davis' injury, LSU was trailing 10-6, having yet to score a touchdown. This story will be updated with more information when availbable.
