He earned Mr. Football Louisiana in 2018 while earning USA Today High School All-American honors. Stingely started as a true freshman and helped the LSU Tigers win the National Championship.
His name has been synonymous with a top-five pick since 2019, but his play wasn’t as consistent in 2020 and 2021. Stingley only played three games in 2021 before hurting his foot and getting Lisfranc surgery. He is now healthy.
