Redshirt-freshman wide receiver Shelton Sampson to depart Baton Rouge, enter NCAA Transfer Portal.
LSU wide receiver Shelton Sampson is set to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal after two seasons in Baton Rouge, he revealed via social media on Thursday.
The 6-foot-4, 190-pounder showed flashes during Fall Camp early, but was ultimately unable to earn meaningful playing time in 2024 behind wideouts Kyren Lacy, CJ Daniels, Aaron Anderson and Zavion Thomas. “He's got to be able to play for us. We've got to get him on the field," Brian Kelly said in September. “So, this is a big week for him and in the next weeks coming up. He's got to get into our rotation. If we get him in our rotation, it allows us to slide some people around. So, he becomes kind of a focal point for us moving forward.”
The Mandevilla native has battled injuries during his time with the Tigers after playing in only three games in as many years. Now, he'll search for a new home where he can continue his playing career after three seasons with the Bayou Bengals.LSU starting wide receiver CJ Daniels is expected to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal after one season in Baton Rouge, On3 Sports reported on Tuesday.
