*Justin Jefferson, LSU, Player News
|
The Vikings selected LSU wide receiver Justin Jefferson with the 22nd overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday night. The 21-year-old celebrated the news with a close group of family members at his home in St. Rose, Louisiana. "Words cannot describ e the feeling," Jefferson said. "My heart pounding as soon as I'm receiving the phone call and realizing that I'm finally becoming a professional athlete and playing for an NFL team. It's definitely exciting, and I'm ready to join the team. "I have my fa mily here, and I'm just relishing this moment with them," he later added."Everybody is [joyous] and happy, crying a lot of tears." Although the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will delay Jefferson from donning his new Vikings uniform, fans already know he looks good in purple. Jefferson had one of the best receiving seasons in LSU history as a junior in 2019. He tied for the national lead with 111 catches (a school single-season record) and finished second in the country overall with 18 touchdown recep tions, which trailed only Tigers teammate Ja'Marr Chase's 20. - Vikings.com

LSU has contacted officials from the NCAA and Southeastern Conference about Cleveland Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr.'s apparent cash payments to Tigers players on the field after the national championship game, a university spokesman said. LSU athleti cs spokesman Michael Bonnette said initial information suggested that Beckham handed out "novelty bills" to players after the top-ranked Tigers defeated Clemson on Monday night. However, further investigation showed that Beckham may have given away real money, Bonnette said. "Information and footage reviewed since shows apparent cash may have also been given to LSU student-athletes," Bonnette said in a statement. "We were in contact with the NCAA and the SEC immediately upon learning of this situation i n which some of our student-athletes may have been placed in a compromising position. We are working with our student-athletes, the NCAA and the SEC in order to rectify the situation." Beckham starred for LSU from 2011 to 2013 and was a first-round draft pick by the New York Giants. He was traded to Cleveland before last season. Videos posted on social media showed Beckham placing money in the hand of LSU receiver Justin Jefferson and celebrating with players in LSU's locker room in the Superdome. Jeffe rson, who just completed his junior season, is eligible to turn pro and enter this spring's NFL draft. - AP College Football
