LSU Quarterback Myles Brennan has suffered an injury to his non-throwing arm and Coach Ed Orgeron says the injury will require surgery. Tiger Rag Editor Ron Higgins has learned Brennan broke his humerus bone…
“By all accounts it takes 12-13 weeks to fully heal which would put him in the later half of the season if he came back, it’s a tough break for him.”
The Athletic’s Brody Miller reports Brennan suffered the injury while fishing. Max Johnson is now set to be LSU’s starting Q-B. Higgins says freshman Garrett Nussmeier is the only other healthy scholarship quarterback on the roster…
“They have five weeks to prepare him, it would’ve been a bigger problem had this happened during the season like what happened last season when Myles Brennan tore his abdomen in game three.”
Brennan and Johnson were expected to have an intense competition for starting quarterback during preseason camp. This is Brennan’s fifth year at LSU, but there’s a lot of faith in Johnson, who won both his starts last season. Higgins knows Brennan is disappointed, but expect him to remain a big part of the team.
“I know he’ll try to get back as much as he can before the end of the season, I also know that he’ll help these two quarterbacks prepare for their jobs because Myles is all about winning, I know he wants to win even though he’s not out there.”
