The elite pass-catcher is being recruited as a wideout by most programs, according to a source, with his potential as a wideout intriguing schools.

Lamons had 63 receptions for 1,340 yards and 20 touchdowns on offense as a sophomore while earning MaxPreps Sophomore All-American Honors in 2024.

Now, as he transitions into his junior campaign in 2025, he's hit the reset button in his recruitment process with the LSU Tigers firmly in the mix for his services.
