LSU safety Greg Brooks underwent emergency surgery to remove a brain tumor, his family said in a statement.
Brooks missed Saturday’s game vs. Mississippi State due to what Tigers head coach Brian Kelly called a “medical emergency.” Kelly said Brooks would be out indefinitely and did not offer more details, but the Brooks family provided an update on Wednesday morning.
"Greg Jr. was diagnosed last week with a large brain tumor that required emergency surgery. Doctors successfully performed the procedure Friday to remove the mass, and we are awaiting biopsy results,"."We are grateful for the work and care of the medical staff helping Greg through these challenges and for the concern and love poured out by so many in the Louisiana, Arkansas and national sports communities. This means the world to us at this difficult time.
