LSU's place-kicking operation produced multiple long field goals in its latest scrimmage, but Lane Kiffin said the kickoff unit and broader special-teams assignments still require work.

LSU has not identified a clear No. 1 receiver because the room remains highly competitive and the staff is still determining each player's best alignment and role.

Ed has returned to LSU and is recovering, with Kiffin expecting him to be present for game week.

LSU's portal-heavy offense is improving but remains behind because Sam Leavitt missed much of spring, leading Kiffin to expect stronger cohesion and performance as the season progresses.

LSU will base skill-position rotations on the performance gap between players, using near-even workloads when options are comparable and concentrating touches when an elite hot hand emerges.
