JJ Weaver reportedly tore his ACL vs. Florida

The 2020 Kentucky football season is the jelly of the month club from hell. It’s the gift of bad news that keeps on giving.

Justin Rowland from Cats Illustrated reports redshirt freshman outside linebacker J.J. Weaver will need surgery to repair a torn ACL he suffered Saturday afternoon at Florida. The Ft. Lauderdale native and Louisville Moore product received attention from the medical staff near the sideline late in the game.

The University of Kentucky did not confirm the report, but Weaver did have this message to share on Twitter.

Minor setback for a major comeback.
