Quarterback Lindsey Scott is transferring from LSU becoming the 11th player to leave the Tiger football program since Head Coach Ed Orgeron took over. Tiger Rag Editor Cody Worsham says that’s not unusual to see…:

Cut 5 (10) “in roster”

Worsham says Scott is behind starter Danny Etling and true freshman Myles Brennan on the depth chart.

 

Coach O says the offense dominated in the team’s second preseason game of training camp on Saturday. Derius Guice rushed for 102 yards and a touchdown, while Darrel Williams added 76 yards and a couple of touchdowns.  He says Nick Brossette has also performed well..:

Cut 18 (14) “for us”

 

According to the Advocate, the Saints are shopping veteran cornerback Delvin Breaux. The report says the team is frustrated with his injury status over the last three years. Breaux missed 9 games last season with a broken fibula and has missed a bulk of training camp this year with a leg injury.

 

Good news for the Saints. It looks like center Max Unger is moving closer to a full return to action. He had foot surgery in May and has been rehabbing, but today he was back on the practice field and went through stretching exercises with the rest of the team.

 

The Jacksonville Jaguars have announced that rookie running back Leonard Fournette won’t play in their preseason game Thursday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers due to a foot injury.

 

Longtime Arkansas football coach and athletic director Frank Broyles died on Monday at age 92. He suffered complications due to Alzheimer’s disease.

 

LSU announced today that it’s moving this year’s Fan Day and all future fan days to the spring. The school says it’s making this move because of facility renovations, as construction is going on at the PMAC, the field house, and the basketball practice gym.
