2023 LSU Tigers Snapshot Profile: No. 35 Sai'Vion Jones
Going into the 2023 football season, LSU Wire will be looking at each player listed on the Tigers’ roster.
Over the preseason, each profile will cover where the player is from, how recruiting websites rated them coming out of high school, and what role they will play for Brian Kelly this season.
There will be a lot said and written about the transfer additions brought in to replace BJ Ojulari and Ali Gaye along the edge, but we’re looking at a returning player who could also occupy that mantle in Sai'Vion Jones, who showed promise as a sophomore in 2022 and could be poised for a breakout.

Depth Chart Overview
Jones was one of the top recruits in Louisiana coming out of high school, and for good reason. A tremendous athlete, he also played basketball and competed in track and field, throwing the discus and shotput while even doing the high jump.
He saw action in 11 games as a true freshman for LSU in 2021, but he had a minimal impact and finished the year with just three total tackles. Still, he registered very solid Pro Football Focus grades in tackling and pass-rushing, setting up for a bigger Year 2.
He ultimately appeared in all 14 games last year, starting three times. His best career outing came in the start against Southern when he totaled six tackles. Jones also record sacks in four games.
He’ll have to compete with the likes of Paris Shand and Quency Wiggins for playing time as a junior, but given his massive frame and promising early career production, he has a chance to make a big impact.
