The Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/andre-anthony-4458/recruiting/">Andre Anthony</a>, a defensive end out of LSU with the 248th overall selection in the seventh round of the <a href="https://www.on3.com/nfl/draft/2022/">2022 NFL Draft</a>. This past season, he was a sixth-year senior for LSU and racked up 3.5 sacks and four tackles for loss, before <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/lsu-tigers/news/lsu-loses-key-defensive-lineman-andre-anthony-for-rest-of-season-head-coach-ed-orgeron/">suffering a season-ending injury against Central Michigan</a>. During the 2020 season, he led the Tigers with 5.5 sacks. He also posted his highest tackle for loss total that season with 5.5. 



Former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/lsu-tigers/news/lsu-defensive-end-andre-anthony-limps-to-the-locker-room/">praised Anthony for his play</a> during the 2021 preseason scrimmages for the Tigers. He was certainly poised for a big season during the 2021-2022 campaign, before suffering his injury. Anthony ranked among the national leaders in tackles for loss and sacks before suffering his injury. The gifted defender played linebacker during his career, but found a home at the defensive end position.



Anthony graduated from LSU in August of 2020 with a degree in sports administration.
