Jarrius Robertson must not have known Leonard Fournette originally wasn’t supposed to play against the Florida.
The young LSU fan, noted for being a New Orleans Saints superfan, spent some time before kickoff visiting with Gators staff members on their sideline. Robertson said Fournette is his favorite Tiger and exclaimed, “He’s going to run all over them” as he walked away.
Robertson is a 14-year-old who suffers from a chronic liver disease that impairs his growth. Saints players met him at a hospital last December, and the team signed him in October to be their “hype man.”
It appears Robertson is also an avid LSU fan. During his visit on the Florida sideline, he exclaimed “Not a Gator!” before holding up his team gloves to form the Tiger eye.
