Former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy has passed away in Houston at age 24, Baton Rouge TV station WAFB reported Sunday.
The report, confirmed by a family member, comes 11 days before Lacy was hoping to be picked in the NFL draft.
Lacy was facing negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run and reckless operation of a vehicle charges related to a car accident in Chackbay, La., on Dec. 17, 2024, that killed a 78-year-old man. He turned himself in the following month and was out of jail on $151,000 bail.
WAFB reported that a grand jury was scheduled to hear evidence in the Lacy case beginning Monday.
Lacy caught 58 passes for 866 yards and shared the Southeastern Conference lead with nine touchdown receptions in 12 games in 2024.
He finished his collegiate career with 162 catches for 2,360 yards and 26 TDs in 64 games with Louisiana (2020-21) and LSU (2022-24).
