I can’t find anything saying so. I know he is doing the east west shrine bowl, so it’s almost a done deal but I can’t understand why it wouldn’t have been announced.

Yes, a few weeks ago I believe.

He's committed to play in the East/West Shrine game which would at least insinuate he's not coming back.

I thought he just accepted a senior bowl/all-star bowl invitation. Not the same thing as declaring for the draft.

Whether he's declared for the draft or not, he will not be playing for LSU in 2026.

Super athlete, but his lack of hustle and bad assignments at times was troubling.

He only played in 4 games in 2024. He has one year of eligibility left

would that be a retroactive redshirt he would still need to be approved for? or did he already get the redshirt back in 2024?

He's playing in the East/West Shrine game which is a pro event. Ends your amateur status, same as Anderson. But i think he would have an extra year if he wanted it due to number of games played when he was injured.

Troubling is an accurate word but I prefer “mind blowing”. He was a preseason late first round pick by about 15 different people/sites. I read something yesterday that had him going in the 4th. I am interested to see how his career plays out.
