Following the announcement of Braelin Moore being honored as the representative for No. 18, LSU announced that Trey'Dez Green and Whit Weeks will both wear the No. 7 jersey. This is a great honor for both young men on this team.
The No. 18 represents a leader for the team, while the No. 7 represents an undeniable playmaker and mismatch whenever he is on the field. For the first time in the history of the tradition, LSU has announced two new players who will wear the number for the first time.
In 2024, LSU announced for the first time that the No. 7 honor would be represented on both offense and defense, with Will Campbell having received the honor the season before and Harold Perkins being issued the number for the first time. This year will mark the first time that the number has been issued to two new players who will both actually be able to wear No. 7 on the field. Campbell received the honor, but because he was an offensive lineman, he had to wear a No. 7 patch while keeping his traditional jersey number.
Whit Weeks is one of the best linebackers in the country, and when he is on the field, there is very little that he is unable to do. He is also a veteran entering his fourth season and has seen a lot of different offenses across the SEC.
Green is simply a nightmare matchup for defensive coordinators, and what makes him even harder to deal with is pairing him with a play caller like Charlie Weis Jr. The 6-foot-7, 240-pound tight end will not be used solely as a traditional tight end, and the versatility he can display in this offense will make him a difficult matchup for opposing teams to defend.

Eight LSU football players landed on the preseason Coaches' All-SEC team. That's the third-most total, after Georgia and Texas with 11 apiece, then Oklahoma with 10. The Tigers tied with the Longhorns for the most first-team selections with five each.
Tight end Trey'Dez Green, offensive tackle Jordan Seaton, defensive lineman Princewill Umanmielen, linebacker Whit Weeks and punter Grant Chadwick landed on the first team. Cornerback DJ Pickett is on the second team while safety Ty Benefield and center Braelin Moore are on the third team.
A mix of veterans from the 2025 roster and the transfer portal, along with young stars, characterizes this year's LSU team. Its All-SEC selections reflect that as well. Weeks and Moore fought through injuries with the Tigers last year, both returning to lead the purple and gold in its first year under head coach Lane Kiffin.
Umanmielen played under Kiffin at Ole Miss last year, ending the year as a third-team All-SEC selection. Chadwick also earned a spot on the All-SEC third team last year as LSU's punter. Benefield and Seaton came to Baton Rouge as two of the top players out of the transfer portal.

Jordan Seaton arrived at LSU football as the nation's top transfer portal offensive lineman after two years as a starter at Colorado. He came into a room of returners and fellow transfers. The left tackle said the unit built trust over the offseason.
"I think being with each other for a long period of time is a great thing and not only that, just trying to build that non-verbal communication," Seaton said. "I think that's huge in a game where it's a stadium of 110, 105, 100,000 at that. Just being able to know what's what and being able to have those non-verbal communication, I think that goes very well with playing and playing together and practicing together."
LSU experienced instability at offensive line last year between injuries and shifting positions. The Tigers' inconsistent offensive line played a large role in LSU falling short of expectations in 2025. LSU ranked 129th in offensive line yards and 80th in pass blocking efficiency.
LSU retained fifth-year senior Braelin Moore at center along with left guard Bo Bordelon and right tackle Weston Davis. Combined with Seaton and Aliou Bah, the Tigers have a solidified starting five early in fall camp.
But Seaton says the camaraderie extends beyond the projected starters down the depth chart. He sees every offensive lineman as important to the unit's success throughout the 2026 season.

LSU football offensive lineman Jordan Seaton was named to the Outland Trophy preseason watch list. The award is presented annually to the best collegiate interior lineman on offense or defense. Glenn Dorsey is the only former Tiger to win it, taking the honor home in 2007.
Seaton came to LSU as the top offensive lineman in the transfer portal. He spent his first two years of college at Colorado, starting all 13 games as a true freshman. It's incredibly rare for true freshman to start on the offensive line but the former five-star prospect earned the role at left tackle, helping the Buffaloes finish 9-4.
As a sophomore, Seaton started the first nine games but sat for the final three due to an injury. He still earned a spot on the All-Big 12 second team, following up 2024 when multiple outlets named him to their freshman All-American teams.
Seaton adds much-needed experience and talent to a depleted offensive line room. LSU lost much of its depth to the transfer portal but retained key pieces from last year, such as center Braelin Moore.

LSU Tigers offensive line received some encouraging news as right tackle Weston Davis returned to practice Monday to begin the second week of fall camp.
Davis was back working with the first-team offensive line on Monday, resuming his spot at right tackle. The sophomore's return is significant for an LSU offense that relied heavily on Davis last season. He played 699 offensive snaps in 2025, the second-most on the Tigers' offense.
It also appears the Tigers may have a clear picture of what they want the right side of their offensive line to look like.
Center Braelin Moore appeared to note that Davis and Aliou Bah are currently occupying the starting spots at right tackle and right guard, respectively.
"West and Liou gonna hold that right side down," Moore said.

LSU football offensive lineman Braelin Moore was named to the Rimington Trophy preseason watch list. The annual award is presented to the most outstanding center in NCAA Division I. The only Tiger to ever win the award is Ben Wilkerson, who took it home in 2004.
In 2025, LSU struggled to establish a rhythm on offense. A big problem was an injury-plagued offensive line, which led to movement across positions and an inconsistent showing in front of quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. Head coach Lane Kiffin made the group a priority in the offseason, which included securing Moore's return.
Moore dealt with a lingering ankle injury throughout last season but was solid when healthy. 2026 will be his second season in Baton Rouge and fifth in college football. He spent three seasons at Virginia Tech before joining the Tigers.
LSU brought in several transfer offensive linemen who project as starters, including Jordan Seaton and Aliou Bah. Moore bridges the gap between newcomers and inexperienced players from last season's roster. His ability to stay in the lineup will play a major role in LSU's success.
