LSU football injury report vs UCLA: Who's in, who's out for the Tigers vs. the Bruins

BATON ROUGE — It's good injury report news for LSU football.

The No. 16 Tigers (2-1) will get junior receiver Chris Hilton back from injury. Hilton is slated to make his season debut against UCLA (1-1) inside Tiger Stadium on Saturday (2:30 p.m., ABC).

He missed the first three games this season with a bone bruise. During pregame, Hilton was seen going the normal team warmup with rest of the team.

LSU coach Brian Kelly said earlier this week that getting Hilton back is huge for the offense but cautioned LSU fans about how much they'll get to see of him against the Bruins.
