Craig Walton Jr. is LSU’s steady depth-piece corner with special-teams value and strong locker-room marks
In the 2025 season, Craig Walton Jr. remained a low-volume but dependable piece for LSU: he appeared in 1 game and logged 5 kickoff-coverage snaps, after playing in 2 games in 2024 and none as a true freshman in 2023. He’s not a stat-sheet stuffer yet, but his value shows up in the details—special teams, academic consistency, and staying ready in a deep cornerback room. At 5-foot-11, 170 pounds, he profiles as a gritty, developmental defensive back who could fit a team that prizes effort, versatility, and culture as much as flash.
