Tears ACL, done for season
LSU head coach Brian Kelly said Monday that Emery suffered a torn ACL in his right knee in Saturday's 52-35 win over Florida and will miss the rest of the season, Scott Rabalais of The Baton Rouge Advocate reports.
ANALYSIS
Emery is in the midst of his fifth and final year of eligibility, so unless he applies for a medical hardship exemption and is granted a sixth year of eligibility in 2024 by the NCAA, his collegiate career will officially come to an end. One of the top running back recruits from the 2019 cycle, Emery struggled to stay healthy and meet expectations during his time in Baton Rouge. He concludes his career with 1,062 yards and 14 touchdowns on 213 carries (5.0 YPC) to go with 36 catches for 320 yards and two more scores over 37 appearances.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2020
2019
Emery was deemed academically ineligible for the 2021 campaign, and ultimately never saw the field. Tyrion Davis-Price instead rushed for over 1,000 yards, but then decided to jump to the NFL. That leaves Emery as the likely starter when LSU begins the 2022 campaign. That being said, he will have some competition. Penn State transfer Noah Cain has entered the fold, while sophomores Corey Kiner and Armoni Goodwin also received opportunities as a freshman while Emery was shelved. Emery’s talent is difficult to ignore, but it has not yet translated to on-field success, and it is far from a foregone conclusion that he will end up as the lead back for the entire season.
