In 2025, linebacker Jack Pyburn transferred to LSU from Florida. Depending on how things go over the next two days, he’ll complete a very different kind of transfer back to the school he left.
The undrafted Buccaneers linebacker has been waived after recording four sacks during the preseason. If he clears waivers, Pyburn will return to LSU, according to On3.com.
Pyburn is one of the plaintiffs in a lawsuit aimed at forcing retroactive application of the NCAA’s new five-year eligibility rule. The players have been winning the effort so far, despite the SEC’s attempt to block players who have signed with NFL teams from benefiting.
If another professional team claims Pyburn, he will not be able to return to LSU. His contract would be inherited by the claiming team, and the standard NFL player contract prohibits the player from competing for any other team or league.
