The Los Angeles Rams may need more help along the offensive line, so they've brought in someone with some starting experience.

After an encouraging first start the Lions may give more opportunities to one of their practice squad staples.

Echols, a redshirt freshman, started seven games for the Tigers at left guard this season. He was a four-star recruit in 2024, and now he’s the second young offensive lineman who has decided to leave LSU. Carius Curne — a former top-100 recruit who started five contests this year as a true freshman — was the first.

Wade joins other Tigers who are playing in college all-star games. Tight end Brandon Frazier will be playing in the Hula Bowl. For the Senior Bowl, offensive lineman Jeremiah Wright and linebacker Keyron Crawford will be featured in the marquee college all-star game.

The third-year sophomore from Mississippi came with plenty of OU DNA, but played in just one game last year and none this year.
