LSU’s secondary was one of its biggest question marks entering the year.
[autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] hit the transfer portal hard, adding [autotag]Mekhi Garner[/autotag], [autotag]Jarrick Bernard-Converse[/autotag], [autotag]Sevyn Banks[/autotag], [autotag]Colby Richardson[/autotag], [autotag]Joe Foucha[/autotag] and [autotag]Greg Brooks Jr.[/autotag]
LSU also had some significant returners in [autotag]Jay Ward[/autotag], [autotag]Major Burns[/autotag] and [autotag]Sage Ryan[/autotag].
Garner, Bernard-Converse, Richardson, Brooks and Ward have played the majority of the snaps. Prior to his injury, Burns played as much as anyone, and Foucha missed the first four games, but his working his way into a sizeable role.
For the most part, the results have exceeded expectations, but there have been issues when it comes to giving up explosive plays. Here’s how each has performed to this point, per the advanced statistics from Pro Football Focus.
