After careful thoughts and consideration, I will be declaring for the 2023 NFL DRAFT.

On December 5th, LSU wide receiver Kayshon Boutte announced via social media that he would be returning for another season with the Tigers.
Just a few weeks later, the Bayou Bengals’ top pass-catcher has changed his mind.
Boutte will be leaving school early and declaring for the 2023 NFL draft after all, making his announcement on social media Wednesday night.
Coming into the 2022 season, Boutte was one of the top receiver prospects in this year’s draft class, and routinely projected as a first-round pick. His production this season didn’t quite live up to the high expectations, but his talent, athleticism and potential still give him plenty of upside at the next level.
