LSU senior TE Colin Jeter only caught 12 passes for 132 yards and one touchdown in 2015 — hardly eye-popping production when you compare those numbers to some of the top tight ends in college football.

However, Jeter said this year’s Tiger offense is more talented across the board than it has been in recent years, which could lead to more catches for every member of the receiving corps.

But, Jeter noted, the lack of production from LSU tight ends in recent years doesn’t mean they’re not doing their jobs:

“Obviously, it’s a question we hear every year,” he said of the tight ends and their lack of catches. “But it’s not a matter of what we’re doing, or how we’re doing it, on offense. As long as we’re executing our jobs as each individual player and as a unit, we’re going to score points.

“That’s the biggest thing … we have the capability to do everything on the field this year. We can run the ball and we can throw the ball deep, intermediate and short. So, we can do it all; we just have to execute and show the rest of the nation that we can.”

However, even if Jeter’s numbers don’t go up this year, he said he’s fine with it as long as the team is winning:

“We just have to continue to prove that and make plays when they come our way. So, whether we’re blocking, receiving or whatever, it doesn’t matter. As long as we’re scoring points and winning football games, who cares?”

LSU and its new-look offense with QB Brandon Harris under center makes its debut on Saturday, Sept. 3, against Wisconsin at Lambeau Field.
