Jennings completed 111-of-227 (48.9 percent) of his pass attempts for 1,611 yards, 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions during the 2014 season. However, he lost an open competition with Brandon Harris prior to the 2015 season and did not record an attempt in any of LSU’s 12 games.
It is unknown at this point where Jennings will transfer.
