Report: LSU Senior WR Racey McMath Is Headed To The NFL Draft

By Staff Reporter•Dec 29, 202012:54 pm•

Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports

Brody Miller with The Athletic is reporting that LSU senior wide receiver Racey McMath has signed with an agent and is declaring for the NFL Draft.

The news means that McMath will not be taking advantage of the NCAA's newly added extra year of eligibility due to COVID-19. He previously accepted an invitation to play in the Senior Bowl back in early November.

McMath, a native of New Orleans, started in LSU's first six games this year but suffered a season-ending injury vs. Arkansas on Nov. 21. He finished the year with 14 receptions for 195-yards and one touchdown.

Special Teams beast. Will probably be on a roster for the next ten years bc of it

BassMan63•69 months

Good luck and best wishes in the future young man. Thank you for honoring a 4 year scholarship. You dont owe anyone any apologies. True Tiger till the end.

Some of you posters truly suck.

I wish RM#17 the best. He will play on Sundays.

HarveyTunnel•69 months

Best to McMath and his family. Sorry he'll miss 2021 explosive Tiger team. It would be epic.

conman•69 months

Racey good luck to you as you chase your dream. Of course we as fans would love to have you back but it is definitely your call.

eddieray•69 months

He’s a demon on kick coverage. Might help him stick somewhere.

DVinBR•69 months

could cost him millions, but what do i know

brett408•69 months

I just do t understand why they keep doing this. He may not even get a combine invite.

I guess the depth chart is not favorable for him.

reauxl tigers•69 months

Maybe, maybe not, Boutte would have gotten majority of targets in 21, and possibly Koy Moore or Gilbert if he returns. Might be a smart move to try and impress at the combine.

mla0100•69 months

Players have different reasons for going but from a statistical perspective, he doesn't have the numbers to command a high draft grade and that could cost him draft position and money. He has 14 Rec. for 195 yards and 1 TD. Doesnt' really qualify him for the early Rounds! I would advise him to come back but I am sure that the LSU staff have already advised him to do so. Good Luck, Racy!

Makes sense. With that size and speed, he will valuable asset. Geaux Tigers.

Drizzt•69 months

Racy couldn’t likely improve his draft stock and we are deep at WR. Thanks for your time at LSU.

Chalkywhite84•69 months

He will get drafted

elcid•69 months

Good Luck Racey! You’re going to kill it! You were one of our favorite Tigers and a true team leader.

It's weird to see that headline.

tbabino•69 months

mistake

themunch•69 months

Good fortune and thanks for your time with the Tigers

Mouche337•69 months

I doubt he gets drafted, but he definitely has the ability to have a successful NFL career. Hopefully he signs with a team that will give him a legitimate shot at making the team. Most undrafted free agents are just camp bodies. He definitely should have taken advantage of the additional year of eligibility.

LSU FSU Grad•69 months

Some teams get stars, known first and second rounders, to come back. At LSU, the backups leave early!

tilthatday•69 months

Smart move on his part. Why return to college and risk another injury? Why take the chance that LSU will improve when it was a disaster this season? Why assume you’ll start when good young receivers are on the way?
Now is the time.

Havoc•69 months

Yeah like, why is your mother such a whore?
