LSU will return three nominal starters along the defensive line, and really only one lose main contributor from the 2018 group in nose tackle Ed Alexander.
But due to injuries, spring practice will be more about developing the rest of the depth here. Seniors Rashard Lawrence and Breiden Fehoko will be held out or limited in participation while rehabbing injuries. But both are known quantities at this point, not exactly in need of a ton of spring work. Ditto defensive end Glen Logan, who is full speed.
Spring will be more about preparing depth guys like Tyler Shelvin, Neil Farrell and Justin Thomas for larger roles.
