Nearly a dozen members of the 2025 LSU football team have been invited to participate in the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine.
With 11 invitees, LSU is tied with Ohio State for the third-most players among FBS schools that are headed to Indianapolis. Texas A&M leads the way with 13 invitees, followed by Alabama with 12.
A total of 319 pro prospects received an invitation to the NFL Combine, which takes place at Lucas Oil Stadium from Feb. 23 through March 2.
As a position group, LSU has four wide receivers on the combine invitation list, the most of any school nationally. LSU’s list includes Aaron Anderson, Barion Brown, Chris Hilton, and Zavion Thomas.
Headlining LSU’s combine list is cornerback Mansoor Delane, a unanimous All-America selection and a finalist for the Thorpe Award as the top defensive back in college football in 2025.
Delane is expected to become LSU’s 54th first-round NFL Draft pick when the draft takes place in late April.
LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, who earned Most Valuable Player honors at The 2026 Senior Bowl, will join Delane at the combine after becoming just the third 7,000-yard passer in LSU history. He rounded out his career ranked among the Top 5 in program annals in attempts (No. 2 with 1,032) and completions (No. 2 with 660), passing yards (No. 3 with 7,699), completion percentage (No. 3 at 63.9) and passing touchdowns (tied No. 4 with 52).
Also headed to Indianapolis for the Tigers are tight end Bauer Sharp, edge Patrick Payton, edge Jack Pyburn, linebacker Harold Perkins, and safety A.J. Haulcy.
