Breaking news: An open letter from Justin Jefferson to Jamarr Chase and entire LSU tigers community which will leave you speechless…

As I take a moment to write this open letter, I feel a profound sense of nostalgia and gratitude. Reflecting on our time together at LSU and the journey we both have undertaken brings back memories that are both cherished and motivating. I want to express my appreciation not only for you, Ja’Marr, but for the entire LSU family that has supported us in ways beyond measure.

Ja’Marr, playing alongside you was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life. From the moment you stepped onto the field, it was clear that you were destined for greatness. Your work ethic, flair, and determination were not just inspiring to me but to everyone around you. Watching your growth as a player, from our practices to those unforgettable game days in Tiger Stadium, has been a privilege. You have an uncanny ability to make big plays at critical moments, and your competitive spirit has pushed me to elevate my own game.

Our time together was defined by a synergy that is hard to replicate. The way we communicated on the field—understanding each other’s movements without needing to say a word—created a bond that was electric. Those 2019 games, filled with impossible catches and stunning touchdowns, were more than just highlights; they were magic. A connection between two receivers who genuinely embodied what it means to be Tigers.

To the entire LSU Tigers community, I cannot thank you enough for the unwavering support and love we received during our collegiate careers. Your presence in the stands, your cheers echoing through “Death Valley,” and the pulse of energy you brought transformed every game into an unstoppable force. The palpable pride in being a Tiger instilled in us a drive that motivated us to compete at our highest levels and pursue our dreams with fiery passion.

Reflecting back on our National Championship run in 2019, I realize this was a culmination of hard work, dedication, and the incredible support from our coaches and fans. Coach Ed Orgeron and the staff cultivated an environment where talent could flourish. They believed in us and pushed us to embrace our potential. With you, Ja’Marr, and a cohort of talented players by my side, we created a moment that will forever be etched into LSU history. The memories of celebrating that title with you and our teammates are something I will carry with me forever.

As I look at the current crop of Tigers, I see a reflection of our journey. The talent and enthusiasm in these young athletes remind me of the days when we first stepped onto that field, eager, hungry, and ready to prove ourselves. To each of you wearing the purple and gold today, embrace every moment.
