Josh Thompson brings LSU veteran juice, pass-protection polish, and rare line versatility
In the 2025 season, Josh Thompson was LSU’s most reliable offensive lineman, starting all 12 regular-season games at right guard, playing 787 snaps, and not allowing a sack while giving up just one quarterback hit and seven hurries. His differentiators are durability, position flexibility, and clean pass protection—he also carried a 30-game sack-free streak across his Northwestern and LSU snaps. He fits a team that values seasoned, technically sound interior line play more than splashy highlights, and his steady, low-penalty style is exactly the kind of trench glue coaches love.
