Former LSU football defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey was announced on Wednesday as one of the 2020 inductees into the College Football Hall of Fame.

Glenn Dorsey is one of the greatest LSU football players of all time, so it’s only right that he’ll be entering the College Football Hall of Fame in December.

Dorsey, who signed with LSU as a four-star defensive tackle in 2004, played four seasons in Baton Rouge.

During those four seasons, Dorsey accumulated 179 total tackles, 27 tackles for loss and 15 sacks.

After starring at LSU, Dorsey was selected in the 2008 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs with the No. 5 overall selection. Dorsey played in Kansas City from 2008-2012. He landed with the San Francisco 49ers in 2013 and played there until an injury forced him to retire in 2015.

During Dorsey’s eight years in the NFL, he totaled 297 tackles and six sacks. He might not have lived up to the top five selection hype, but he absolutely had a solid career in the NFL.
