  12/09/22 - FS Jay WardrSr/2023, LSU

  Senior defensive back Jay Ward, a versatile and essential part of the LSU secondary the last few seasons, declared Wednesday for the 2023 NFL Draft. He told The Advocate he will still play in the Citrus Bowl. Ward carved out a backup role as a freshman on LSU's 2019 national championship team. He turned into a full-time starter the last two years after moving from cornerback to safety, but he handled multiple positions depending on where LSU needed him most. "My time in Baton Rouge has been special, but I have reached a point in my career where I have to make a decision about my future," Ward wrote in a social media post. "I will be pursuing a lifelong dream and declaring for the 2023 NFL Draft."

Ward, who signed as a three-star recruit from Moultrie, Georgia, had one more year of eligibility because of an NCAA extension given to athletes during the coronavirus pandemic. He accepted an invitation to play in the Senior Bowl. In four seasons, Ward started 22 games. He recorded 161 tackles, 17 pass breakups and six interceptions. His highlights included an acrobatic interception along the sideline in an upset win over Florida in 2020, a blocked field goal to preserve a win against Arkansas the same year and a fumble returned for a touchdown to help beat Auburn this fall. - Baton Rouge Advocate
