Jay Haynes Injury: Out for Week 1 blockbuster

Published on August 26, 2025

Haynes (knee) won't play against LSU in Week 1, per Jon Blau of The Charleston Post and Courier.

Haynes, who is still recovering from the ACL he tore in last season's ACC title game, won't be available to return for the Tigers' massive opener against LSU. The Tigers figure to deploy plenty of tailbacks ahead of Haynes, including Adam Randall and Gideon Davidson, so he didn't figure to get too many carries regardless.
