Rummel wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase's season ended with an injury in the playoffs.
But there's still a lot of football left for one of the nation's top prospects, and for that, he's grateful.
"It could have been worse for me," Chase said. "The Chicago Bears tight end (Zac Miller) had the same injury and he almost lost his leg. So I just look at that as a blessing."
On National Signing Day, either LSU or Auburn will be grateful to have Chase's signature.
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound All-American's decision will cap a recruitment process that he joked he's eager to see come to an end.
