LSU freshman quarterback Walker Howard is leaving Baton Rouge, but he won’t be going far. After a year with the Tigers under Brian Kelly, Howard entered the transfer portal and announced on Wednesday his commitment to play for Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss.
The announcement comes after visits to the Rebels and national runner-up TCU over the weekend.
Howard played sparingly as a freshman, as Jayden Daniels took the reins of the program in its first year under Kelly. He went 2-for-4 for seven yards, and added 33 yards on six carries, appearing in the team’s regular season win over Southern and Citrus Bowl victory over Purdue earlier this month.
