LSU football made an offer to 2026 cornerback Hayward Howard Jr., according to an social media post from the prospect on Tuesday.
According to On3’s Industry Rankings, Howard ranks No. 32 at his position and No. 11 in the state of Louisiana. Hailing from New Orleans, Howard plays high school football at Edna Karr High School, just like multiple Tigers before him.
2025 signee and four-star prospect TeRon Francis and veteran wide receiver Aaron Anderson also went through Edna Karr. 2026 commitments Aiden Hall and Richard Anderson play alongside Howard at the school, helping the team win the state championship last year.
Howard holds offers from plenty of Power Four schools, including Ole Miss, Florida, Texas A&M, Auburn and Texas. Should he join the Tigers, he would bolster the nation’s top 2026 class while representing his home state.
LSU football’s 2026 recruiting class currently ranks No. 1 in the country, according to On3. The Tigers have nine total commits, including seven four-stars and one five-star.
Howard is the type of talented Louisiana defensive back that LSU secondary coach Corey Raymond has made a career out of recruiting.
