LSU Scrimmage Intel: New Starter Emerges, Sam Leavitt Flashes

LSU held a closed scrimmage Saturday night inside Tiger Stadium, and we have fresh intel on what happened.

Sam Leavitt showed off his ability to make plays with his legs as the offense battled LSU’s first-team defense. Meanwhile, a major position battle may be taking shape with Jace Thomas starting at safety opposite Ty Benefield.

We also break down the latest on LSU’s running back rotation, including Stacey Gage’s rise, the offensive line depth chart, young defensive linemen getting first-team reps and what the scrimmage revealed about LSU’s depth with Clemson less than three weeks away.

It’s a full LSU fall camp intel report as Lane Kiffin’s Tigers continue preparing for the 2026 season.
