NFLSU Week 1: How former Tigers performed in the NFL

Week one of the NFL season has finally come and gone. Plenty of the former LSU Tigers were in action. In all, there are 47 former Tigers on NFL rosters as the opening weekend got underway.

LSU fans got to see Joe Burrow return from a horrific knee injury during his rookie campaign. He very much looked like the man who won a Heisman Trophy while leading the team to the 2019 CFP national championship. He was joined by former teammate Ja’Marr Chase, who made his NFL debut. Chase made history as the first Cincinnati Bengal to ever wear No. 1.

We look back at the performances of each former LSU Tiger at skill positions:
