LSU running back Chris Curry was expected to be the Tigers’ top rusher in 2020. Unfortunately for Curry, LSU’s running attack never truly got going, and the team struggled to run the ball at times in a disappointing 5-5 season.

On Tuesday, Curry entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal.

As a redshirt sophomore in 2020, Curry appeared in seven games for the Tigers, rushing for 145 yards on 45 attempts for an average of 3.2 yards per attempt.

Curry finished third on the team in rushing yards in 2020, behind Tyrion Davis-Price and John Emery Jr.

The 5-foot-11, 216-pounder from Lehigh Acres, Florida, entered 2020 with 190 career rushing yards.

His best performance came last season in the College Football Playoff semifinal win over Oklahoma, where he rushed for 90 yards on 16 attempts, stepping in for Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

With both Davis-Price and Emery sidelined in the season finale against Ole Miss, Curry played sparingly, rushing for eight yards on five attempts, while freshmen Tre Bradford and Josh Williams received the bulk of the carries and combined to rush for 146 yards.

Also entering the transfer portal on Monday was redshirt sophomore defensive tackle, Nelson Jenkins.

Nelson made one tackle in his LSU career, back in 2018. He played in one game in 2019 and opted out of the 2020 season.
