LSU WR Malik Nabers out with injury for UCLA game, first couple games of 2021 season One of LSU's freshmen wide receivers is out for the season opener.
Could miss multiple games Nabers is dealing with a shoulder injury that could sideline him multiple weeks, Wilson Alexander of The Advocate reports.
Impact LSU will be without its promising freshman wideout for at least Week 1 and Nabers could be out beyond that. "I don't know if Malik will play until a couple games into the season," said coach Ed Orgeron on Wednesday.

Will not play against Bruins Nabers (undisclosed) will not play Saturday against UCLA, Bruce Feldman of The Athletic reports.
Impact The freshman had been impressing through fall camp but was reportedly dinged up in a recent practice. With Nabers out, LSU has one less talented option in the passing game. Look for Kayshon Boutte, Trey Palmer, Koy Moore and Jaray Jenkins to be the primary targets.

Looks good in scrimmage Nabers played well in a scrimmage Saturday, Blake Brockermeyer of 247Sports reports.
Impact Nabers joined the Tigers only recently as a true freshman in the 2021 class but he appears to be making a good early impression. While Brockermeyer doesn't quite have the same enthusiasm for him as he does for fellow LSU freshman wideout Brian Thomas Jr., it sounds like Nabers could be a contributor down the road and could speed up the timeline if he can continue to perform well.
