On Monday, coach Brian Kelly said Brooks had a “medical emergency” and could not estimate when he might return to football.
and could not estimate when he might return to football. He declined to go into specifics because the family was not yet ready to have that information made public.
This Saturday, LSU hosts Arkansas, the team for which Brooks played three seasons before transferring to LSU in 2022. “Greg continues to fight and we await further clarity on the extent of that battle,” the Brooks family announcement said. “His incredible strength of character gives us confidence, but we also know that he needs our support now more than ever.”
Brooks, who grew up in the New Orleans area, started 13 games for the Tigers last season, when he intercepted two passes to go with a sack, a forced fumble and three tackles for losses. He finished that season with five passes defended and 66 solo or assisted tackles.LSU regularly played a three-safety lineup when Brooks was on the field. Last weekend, the Tigers started three linebackers instead.
After LSU’s last victory on Saturday, Kelly told the team he wanted to dedicate a game ball to Brooks.
