Report: LSU lands Liberty receiver transfer CJ Daniels
After what seems to have been a successful visit to Baton Rouge, LSU is expected to land Liberty receiver transfer CJ Daniels. The news was first reported by Matt Zenitz of 247Sports.
A native of Lilburn, Georgia, Daniels is coming off a 1,000-yard campaign in 2023 after injuries shortened his 2022 season. He’s one of the top receivers available in the portal, and he’ll provide a major boost to a room that’s set to lose both Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. to the NFL draft.
Daniels had 55 catches for 1,067 yards and 10 touchdowns this season, and in four years in Lynchburg, he has 106 catches for 1,954 yards and 21 receiving touchdowns.

If Daniels ultimately commits, the Tigers will have landed two receivers so far in the portal after Mississippi State’s Zavion Thomas committed earlier in the cycle.
