LSU junior cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. announced his decision to enter the 2022 NFL Draft with a post in The Players' Tribune.

Stingley Jr, a native of Baton Rouge, La. started in every game during his true freshman season when LSU won the National Championship in 2019. He missed several games the following two season's due to injuries.
quote:

Growing up as a kid in Baton Rouge, just a few miles from LSU, I always dreamed of playing for the Tigers. Hearing the fans in Death Valley, getting to have my friends and family watch me in the stands while I wore the purple and gold. It’s something I had always envisioned … and the reality was better than anything I could’ve imagined.

I still remember that first Tiger Walk during my freshman year. I’ll never forget, it was my first spring game and I was so excited to finally get to walk that legendary route to the stadium. It was like slow motion, being with the team and seeing all the fans there. It was amazing. I soaked up every minute of it. Read more.

How often is it that someone has their best season as a rookie, and only proceeds to get worse from then on out.

Can the NFL take out insurance for his 2 games per year. Sometimes he gets hurt in practice. But I still wish him good luck.

This isn't a big deal. The young man has rarely played since 2019 anyway.

Maybe he will find his heart and love for the game in the NFL when he's getting paid to play, but he had none of that the last 2 years. Thanks for 2019 though Sting.
