Former LSU Football player Devonta Lee has reportedly passed away.
The Fluker, La. native signed with the Tigers in 2019 as a four-star wide receiver from Amite High School and transferred to Louisiana Tech in 2022 after two years at LSU.
Just a few months after his move to Ruston, Devonta was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer. Lee battled the cancer with surgeries, chemotherapy, and radiation, and went into remission a year later.
We are deeply saddened to hear of Lee's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
