LSU Tigers quarterback TJ Finley says he intends to enter NCAA transfer portal

LSU quarterback TJ Finley, who started five games for the Tigers as a freshman in 2020, is set to enter the NCAA's transfer portal, he told WAFB-TV on Wednesday.

Finley's name does not yet appear in the portal, but he told WAFB, "I plan on taking a few trips to other schools before deciding where I will be attending."

Finley and three other quarterbacks competed during spring practice at LSU, but Myles Brennan and Max Johnson emerged as the likely leaders in the race to start.

Brennan opened the 2020 season as LSU's starter and played three games before an abdominal injury sidelined him.
