With LSU facing Nicholls in its home opener on Saturday night, it presented an opportunity for some young players to make an impact.
True freshman tight end [autotag]Trey’Dez Green[/autotag] saw some early snaps in the game, and he took advantage. On the Tigers’ second drive, he caught a touchdown pass on a play-action throw from quarterback Garrett Nussmeier — his first in an LSU uniform.
The Jackson, Louisiana, native was one of the top players in LSU’s 2024 class, and at 6-foot-7 and 240 pounds, he’s also expected to play basketball for the Tigers.
Here’s his first career score from Saturday night’s game.

LSU will hope the touchdown is the first of many for Green, who could see a bigger role as his freshman campaign goes on.
