BREAKING: Tigers land 2025 legacy tight end JD LaFleur

LSU picked up its third commitment in the 2025 recruiting cycle, and this time it’s a player with a last name fans should be familiar with.

Four-star Sulphur, Louisiana, tight end JD LaFleur announced his commitment to the Tigers on Tuesday afternoon. LaFleur is an LSU legacy as his father, David LaFleur, played for the Tigers from 1992-96, becoming one of the best tight ends in program history.

The elder LaFleur earned All-SEC honors twice and Third-Team All-American honors in his final season.

His son ranks inside the top 350 nationally according to both On3 and 247Sports’ composite rankings, though the latter has him as a three-star prospect. LaFleur is a top-15 tight end in the cycle according to 247Sports.

LSU has made recruiting tight ends a big priority since Brian Kelly arrived on campus, and now they’ve landed the top tight end in the state of Louisiana in next year’s class.
