LSU running back Armoni Goodwin will enter the NCAA Transfer Portal after three years in Baton Rouge.

Goodwin, who did not receive any snaps this season, has battled injuries throughout his time with the program which saw his status on the depth chart drop significantly. 

As a true freshman in 2021, Goodwin record 16 carries for 65 yards and zero touchdowns, but coming into Year 2 with the Tigers, he received significant snaps. 

Goodwin entered the year as the Tigers' RB1 before a knee injury ended his season early. In his sophomore campaign, he totaled 45 carries for 267 yards and five touchdowns. 

Once back in a rhythm during Fall Camp in 2023, Goodwin remained a player moving at half speed coming off of an injury.

Now, the former Top 150 prospect in America is back on the market looking to earn significant playing time. 

The LSU running back room remains a position group with promise. The Tigers return Logan Diggs, the 2023 starter, and six scholarship backs for next season.

Along with retaining depth, running backs coach Frank Wilson secured Top 10 2024 running hack Caden Durham. A player who can make an immediate impact, the purple and gold are loaded at the running back position moving forward. 

The NCAA Transfer Portal officially opens on Dec. 4 with significant shakeup expected throughout the college football scene.
