After former Tennessee Volunteer DE Jordan Ross visited LSU's campus throughout the middle of the week, a visit LSUOdyssey reported on, his decision was solidified: Ross would become a Tiger, signing on the dotted line for the purple and gold, as first reported by On3's Pete Nakos, while LSU media phantasm Matt Moscona also strongly hinted at Ross committing before it was announced.
Achieving 26 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, 1 batted pass, 1 forced fumble and 1 fumble recovery over 22 appearances with slimmer snap counts (just 249 snaps in 2025 as a sophomore), Ross generated 13 QB pressures this past season for Tennessee, proving he can get to the quarterback with his agile athletic frame and former 5 star pedigree.
As a rarely utilized freshman, Ross also returned a blocked punt for a touchdown, showcasing the playmaking abilities within the rotational pass rusher's repertoire.
...however, after 2 seasons and 1 school already, the former 5 star tag means little, it is now the time and place for Jordan Ross to produce at the SEC level as an elite pass rusher....and due to their investment in his commitment, it appears Defensive Coordinator Blake Baker, Edge Rushing Coach Kevin Peoples, Defensive Line Coach Sterling Lucas, as well as Head Coach Lane Kiffin are all betting on Ross to succeed in Baton Rouge.
