LSU transfer wide receiver Destyn Hill fractured his left hand on Saturday in the Tigers' win over Clemson, coach Brian Kelly said on Tuesday.
Hill — a redshirt sophomore from Florida State who prepped at Edna Karr — underwent surgery on Monday to have a plate inserted in his injured hand. Kelly said, however, that LSU expects him to miss only one game.
"He'll be out this week," Kelly said. "We think that we can get him in a position where next week he can be in a limited capacity for us. So, the plate stabilizes it to the point where we can put a cast on it that allows him to function as a wide receiver."
Hill played only two snaps in the win over Clemson, according to Pro Football Focus. LSU rotated six receivers in and out of the offense. Zavion Thomas led the group in snaps
