LSU Football let go of a former player on its recruiting staff.
Per reports on Thursday, JaCoby Stevens will not return to his position as a recruiting specialist. He joined head coach Brian Kelly’s staff in August 2023 and also worked with the defensive backs at practices.
Stevens donned the purple and gold from 2017-2020. He was a part of the national championship team in 2019. Through three years as a starter, Stevens totaled 190 tackles, 15 pass deflections, nine and a half sacks, four interceptions, and one forced fumble.
Following the 2020 season, Stevens entered the 2021 NFL Draft. He was selected in the sixth round by the Philadelphia Eagles and spent one season with the team. Through two games, he made three tackles.
The news of Stevens’ employment status comes after another recruiting staffer was let go. Former LSU running back Nick Brossette was relieved of his duties last week. He served as the Director of Alumni Relations and High School outreach for three seasons.
