According to a release given by his family, Denzel Nkemdiche will remain hospitalized -- and will not be playing against LSU this upcoming weekend. 

Ole Miss' leading tackler had been hospitalized in ICU since Monday, due to an undisclosed illness. Head coach Hugh Freeze initially said Nkemdiche was "questionable" for Saturday's contest.

Without Nkemdiche in the lineup, Ole Miss will likely be relying upon DeMarquis Gates to fill the spot.
