LSU Tigers quarterback Sam Leavitt is putting his foot injury firmly in the rearview mirror ahead of his debut season in Baton Rouge. Speaking about his recovery with the media, Leavitt acknowledged that the first several months were challenging, particularly after undergoing a second surgery to have the pins removed from his foot. Leavitt explained that he initially expected his foot to quickly return to normal after the second surgery, but the recovery did not happen as quickly as he anticipated. Now, Leavitt said the injury rarely crosses his mind when he steps onto the field. After months of uncertainty and rehabilitation, Leavitt appears ready to move forward without the injury being a major factor in his preparation.
