Vanderbilt vs LSU Football Injury Report: List of players injured ft. Dariyan Wiley, Zaylin Wood, Kyle Parker, and more ahead of Week 13 showdown

The Vanderbilt Commodores and LSU Tigers will face off in the penultimate week of the 2024 college football season. Both teams entered the season with playoff hopes, but a combination of injuries and loss of form has kept them out of the top spots in the SEC.

Ahead of their Week 13 showdown, let's examine the injury reports and consider what to expect from the matchup.

Vanderbilt football’s injury report

Dariyan Wiley

According to the Tennessean, Dariyan Wiley will not play in Saturday's game against the LSU Tigers. The wide receiver is dealing with a hamstring injury and will be out for the foreseeable future.

Wiley has appeared in six games this season for the Commodores.

Zaylin Wood

Zaylin Wood will not play in Saturday's game against the Tigers. The Commodores' defensive lineman has suffered a host of injuries in the ongoing college football season, and he'll miss the LSU Tigers game as a consequence.

According to On3 Sports, Wood is set to apply to the NCAA for a waiver to play in 2025, a year after his senior season. He hopes the governing body will give him a favorable response soon.

LSU football’s injury report

Kyle Parker

Kyle Parker will not be available against the Vanderbilt Commodores. The pacey wide receiver suffered a season-ending injury earlier this season and will be targeting a 2025 return.

Parker is dealing with a torn tricep tendon, and such injuries are notoriously slow to heal. The Tigers can expect him back to action sometime next year, but they'll try to end a three-game losing streak without the skillful pass catcher.

John Emery Jr.

The LSU Tigers couldn't catch a break in the ongoing college football season. The franchise lost John Emery Jr. to a season-ending ACL injury. He won't be available against the Vanderbilt Commodores, and the blisteringly quick running back's earliest return date is sometime in 2025.

In the meantime, expect Kaleb Jackson, Caden Durham, and Josh Williams to alternate touches in Week 13. It'll be interesting to see how Brian Kelly shuffles the pack until the end of the regular season.
