LSU is one player shy of reaching 40 additions in its 2026 transfer portal class after landing its 39th signee on Tuesday evening. The Tigers received a commitment from North Dakota freshman linebacker Theo Grace.

Grace is the younger brother of new LSU redshirt sophomore transfer tight end Zach Grace, who transferred from Oregon on Jan. 15. Grace (6-1, 220 pounds) recently completed his freshman season with the Fighting Hawks, recording one tackle and a half tackle-for-loss in his lone appearance against Valparaiso.

LSU’s 2026 roster will feature three pairs of brothers: Whit and Zach Weeks, Bo and Brett Bordelon and Zach and Theo Grace.

Grace adds depth to a linebacker room highlighted by junior Whit Weeks, new Ole Miss redshirt junior transfer TJ Dottery, sophomore Davhon Keys and redshirt freshman Tylen Singleton.

Grace becomes the 39th commitment/signee to LSU’s 2026 transfer portal class.
