Former Colorado left tackle Jordan Seaton announced Friday night on Instagram that he's transferring to LSU. Seaton was the Rivals industry ranking's No. 1 offensive tackle in the 2024 recruiting class and one of Colorado's highest-rated signees in program history.

Deion Sanders reeled him in, and Seaton wound up starting 22 games as the Buffaloes' blind-side protector over the past two seasons.

The 6-foot-5, 330-pound Seaton will now join Lane Kiffin at LSU, where the former Ole Miss head coach is looking to return the Tigers to the College Football Playoff after a six-season drought.

Seaton, a Washington, D.C. native but a product of IMG Academy in Florida, has two years of eligibility remaining. That said, he's considered a potential first-round prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft.

After arriving at Colorado as a five-star prospect, he immediately found his way into the starting lineup, where he blocked for current Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders.

Seaton was sidelined for the final three games of his sophomore season, but he still earned second-team All-Big 12 honors. In his nine games during the 2025 campaign, he allowed only seven pressures and two sacks, according to Pro Football Focus. Along the way, he went six straight games without giving up a single pressure, per PFF.

It's worth noting, though, that in both of his seasons at Colorado, the Buffs' rushing attack ranked outside the top 100 nationally.

Still, his skill set is undeniable, as was his value in the portal. He's LSU's latest pickup, and he's poised to block for former Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt.
