LSU’s running back situation received a boost on Monday.

Caden Durham will return to LSU for his junior season, 247sports Matt Zenitz reports. Over two seasons, Durham has carried the ball 251 times for 1258 yards and nine touchdowns.

He was a Freshman All-SEC honoree in 2024 when he led the team and all SEC freshmen in rushing. He’s led the Tigers in rushing each of his two seasons.

Durham entered the transfer portal on January 3.

He reunites with Harlem Berry to form LSU’s primary tailback rotation. LSU has also added transfers Raycine Guillory and Rod Gainey.
