The college football transfer portal is officially open and a flurry of LSU Tigers are entering their names into the mix. That includes LSU wide receiver Kyle Parker, according to On3's Hayes Fawcett. Parker just completed his redshirt sophomore campaign with the Tigers and has three years of eligibility left.

Parker signed with LSU in 2023. According to On3's Industry Rankings, was the No. 317 overall-ranked player in the class and the No. 46-ranked wide receiver. Parker saw little action as a true freshman, playing just nine snaps.

As a redshirt freshman in 2024, Parker showed promise, but only caught three passes for 55 yards before an injury cut his season short. 2025 was Parker's most productive season, catching 31 passes for 330 yards and four touchdowns.

Parker was not a featured part of LSU's offense, but he had talent and made plays when given the chance. Parker caught five passes for 75 yards vs. South Carolina in October. He finished the year with a strong performance in the Texas Bowl, hauling in seven passes for 68 yards.

As the transfer portal opens on Friday, LSU head coach Lane Kiffin, along with new wide receivers coach George McDonald, will begin a complete rebuild of LSU's wide receiver room.
