Weeks has been a team captain at LSU, but his role goes further than leadership. As a sophomore in 2024, Weeks finished second in the SEC in tackles and ninth nationally with 125. That mark was the eighth highest in school history.
Last season, a broken ankle sidelined him for five games and hobbled him for three more. Weeks spurned the chance to enter the NFL draft during the offseason and will return in a new number.
Green exploded onto the college football scene as a sophomore last year. He made a team-high seven touchdown catches which set the LSU record for scoring receptions by a tight end. Green was a first team preseason All-SEC selection by the media and coaches and is a popular first-round pick in early mock drafts.
Both players represented LSU at SEC Media Days in July.
