Former three-star receiver Avery Peterson announced his intention to transfer from LSU via Facebook on Monday.

The 6-foot-2, 200-pound brother of former Tigers standout and star NFL cornerback Patrick Peterson will seek to continue his college career elsewhere, NOLA.com confirmed.

An early enrollee projected to possibly compete for playing time in 2013, the younger brother sustained a season-ending injury, then played in just one game in 2014.

With players like Travin Dural, Malachi Dupre, D.J. Chark and Trey Quinn all ahead of Peterson on this year’s roster, it appeared his best chance of playing may have been on special teams. There’s no immediate news on where Peterson may continue his college career.

Avery Peterson also posted a long message on his Facebook page, which NOLA.com passed along in its story:
