Three more LSU Tigers bid farewell after the 2021 season

Three seniors tweet their goodbyes.

It occurs every offseason but it doesn’t make it any easier for these student athletes. A trio of LSU Tigers big farewell on social media after the conclusion of the 2021 season.

They played on a team that won a national championship in 2019 and sent their head coach Ed Orgeron out as a winner in the final regular-season game against the Texas A&M Aggies in dramatic fashion. Almost a storybook ending, the only better way would be in a championship season, but Orgeron took his childhood team to the ultimate peak in 2019.

These three players played plenty of meaningful snaps for the Tigers. The first was Cam Lewis, who played five seasons at LSU. In 2019 and 2021 he played in 11 games each season. This past season was his most productive in those five seasons. He tallied 54 tackles, 2.5 TFLs, 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble.

Punter Avery Atkins was the second player we are highlighting. He served as the holder for junior kicker Cade York. In 2021 he was named the starting punter where he was called upon for 62 punts. Atkins averaged 42.6 yards per punt. During his four-year career, Atkins totaled seven tackles and one fumble recovery.

Finally, we have a starter at offensive guard Ed Ingram. He will work on building up his draft stock before making the jump to the professional league. Ingram played in 45 games over his Tigers career. He was part of the offensive line that protected Joe Burrow in that magical season.

Each player tweeted their own message on Friday.
