Despite coming off a bye week, LSU is dealing with quite a few injuries heading into a critical Week 7 matchup against Ole Miss.
The receiver position in particular seems to be vulnerable, and the Tigers got some bad news on Friday night as both receivers [autotag]CJ Daniels[/autotag] and [autotag]Chris Hilton Jr.[/autotag] have been downgraded to doubtful.
Both have practiced leading up to the game, and Hilton was looking to make his season debut after suffering an ankle injury during camp. The depth at receiver was already stressed as it was announced earlier in the week that [autotag]Kyle Parker[/autotag] would miss the rest of the season with a torn tendon in his tricep.
LSU wide receivers CJ Daniels and Chris Hilton were downgraded to doubtful against Ole Miss.
Star Ole Miss receiver Tre Harris was upgraded to probable.
