Lisfranc surgery sparks questions about Sam Leavitt’s future at ASU

Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt will have a Lisfranc injury in his foot repaired through surgery, and he will be out of football activities for up to six months. Initially acquired at the beginning of the season, the injury recurred and eventually made the decision necessary to take a break throughout the rest of 2025.

To Leavitt, this is a big obstacle, not only to a full recovery but also to being able to maintain the momentum. He succeeded in guiding ASU to the Big 12 championship and the College Football Playoff last year; this year he commenced as a quarterback among the nation’s leading quarterbacks.
