LSU head coach Ed Orgeron spoke to the media after practice on Thursday, and told reporters that junior offensive lineman Adrian Magee will be back for this week’s game against Ole Miss, Orgeron told reporters, per Shea Dixon of 247 Sports.
Magee was the starting right tackle in LSU’s season-opener against Miami, but went down with an injury.
Although he got the start at right tackle against Miami, Magee could move to the left tackle spot due to other injuries on LSU’s offensive line. Starting left tackle Saahdiq Charles is still out with injury, as well as starting left guard Garrett Brumfield.
Orgeron told reporters Magee is versatile enough to fill the other tackle spot on the offensive line.
“He can go both,” Orgeron said. “That’s one thing we like about Adrian.
“There will be some rust, but we’re just thankful he’s gonna play.”
LSU hosts Ole Miss in Baton Rouge at 9 p.m. EST on Saturday, on ESPN.
