For the second week in a row, LSU edge rusher [autotag]Bradyn Swinson[/autotag] has been honored by the league office.
Swinson, now in his second season with the program after transferring in from Oregon, is having a breakout season and has emerged as one of the SEC’s top pass rushers. After turning in another two-sack game in Week 4’s 34-17 win over UCLA, he’s been named the SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week for the second week in a row.
He was also named the SEC Defensive Player of the Week after a two-sack performance in the win over South Carolina last week.

Swinson, who already has five sacks and six tackles for loss on the season, could now see an even bigger role. [autotag]Harold Perkins Jr.[/autotag] tore his ACL on Saturday, and the Tigers will now be without one of their best havoc-creating players for the remainder of the season.
It’s now even more critical that Swinson continues to be as disruptive as he’s been through the first third of the season.
