LSU began the week with two starting defensive players on the practice field Monday after missing extended time Saturday against Mississippi State.
Defensive end Rashard Lawrence and nickel corner Kary Vincent were seen doing all practice drills with teammates in shorts and shirts during the 8 minutes LSU allowed for media access.
Lawrence practiced one day in pads last week but missed a second consecutive game after another player rolled up on his left leg in the opener against BYU. Vincent started Saturday but missed the second half with an undisclosed injury.
Orgeron said earlier Monday that he was unsure about Lawrence playing this week against Syracuse and he offered no update on Vincent.
