2024 Pass/Rush Projections
College days over
Brennan confirmed Monday in a post on his personal Twitter account that he will forgo his sixth and final season of eligibility at LSU to retire from football.
ANALYSIS
Brennan's decision comes shortly after he fell out of contention for LSU's starting quarterback role heading into the Sept. 4 opener versus Florida State. Though Brennan had been healthy for summer workouts after injuries prevented him from playing in 2021, the 23-year-old likely wasn't interested in sticking around with the Tigers in a backup capacity. Brennan apparently isn't considering transferring elsewhere at this stage and instead appears content to focus on life beyond football. During his time at LSU, Brennan appeared in 18 games and completed 60.2 percent of his 201 attempts for 1,712 yards, 13 touchdowns and six interceptions. Jayden Daniels and Garrett Nussmeier (ankle) will head into the regular season as the top two options on the LSU depth chart in some order.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
Brennan started the 2020 campaign with a bang, throwing for at least 330 yards and three touchdowns in each of the first three games of the season for the Tigers. Unfortunately, he suffered an oblique injury and ended up being sidelined for the remainder of the season. Brennan is supposedly healthy as the 2021 seasons looms, but he has a competition on his hands for the starting job with Max Johnson. Whomever lines up under center will have a bunch of inexperienced pass catchers stepping to the forefront after Terrace Marshall Jr. opted for the NFL and Arik Gilbert transferred to Georgia. Kayshon Boutte does return, though; the standout wideout flashed monstrous upside with a 14-catch, 308-yard, three-touchdown virtuoso performance versus Ole Miss in the final game of the season. Brennan can win the job as long as he stays healthy, but he once again finds himself without a guaranteed spot.
