LSU tight end Mason Taylor announced Thursday on Instagram that he's declaring for the NFL draft.
Taylor is LSU's all-time career leader at tight end in receptions (129) and receiving yards (1,308). He was a three-year starter for the Tigers and was second on the team this season with 55 catches.
The 6-5, 255-pound Taylor is ranked by ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. as the No. 3 tight end prospect for the 2025 NFL draft.
Taylor is the second LSU player to announce this week that he's leaving for the NFL.
