OL Ed Ingram returning to starting lineup for LSU

Offensive guard Ed Ingram is taking on a more permanent role in 2020.

We’ve seen LSU offensive lineman Ed Ingram bounce in and out of the starting lineup during his time with the Tigers, but he may have found a more permanent place moving forward.

Ingram, now the highest-graded LSU offensive lineman on Pro Football Focus through three games of the 2020 college football season, has seen action in two contests this year. He missed the matchup vs. Missouri with an injury, but should be back to aid the unit this week.

Ingram noted that he was “kind of glad” the game against the Florida Gators was cancelled, so that he had extra time to heal and get back to full capacity.

This could develop into a statement year for Ingram, who secured a starting gig at offensive guard as a true freshman in 2017, then was sidelined for the entirety of the 2018 season.

Ingram made a few appearances on the 2019 season, starting just three of 12 games behind Adrian Magee and Damien Lewis.

Ingram seems confident in the improvement of the offensive line as a whole.

“I think we have developed a pretty good chemistry now,” he said. “The first game the whole team didn’t gel together. The offensive line, I felt personally, we didn’t gel. But three games in, I am confident in the guys.”

The Tigers and Gamecocks are set to kick of at 6 p.m. CT on Saturday in Tiger Stadium.
