The Worldwide Leader found a way to include the SEC’s top returning receiver, South Carolina’s Pharoh Cooper, on offense, giving him the all-purpose label behind projected first-round picks Laquon Treadwell and Duke Williams.
LSU’s the only team with two players within the same position group — Tre’Davious White and Jamal Adams in the secondary.
Six SEC players were named to ESPN’s preseason All-American team as well. Nick Chubb, Hunter Henry, Laremy Tunsil, A’Shawn Robinson, Robert Nkemdiche and Vernon Hargreaves were included.
