(BATON ROUGE) -- LSU's Star linebacker Devin White is the winner of this year's Charles McClendon Award, the football team's MVP award.
White was given the award on Monday night (Dec. 17) at the Union Theatre on LSU's campus, where multiple players were recognized for their work this season.
White led the Tigers with 115 tackles on the season and 10 tackles for a loss.
White now can put the McClendon Award next to the 2018 Butkus Award for best college football linebacker, his All-America recognition and an All-SEC selection.
White, cornerback Greedy Williams and safety Grant Delpit also received the Percy E. Roberts Outstanding Defensive Player Award.
Delpit was also a unanimous All-America, becoming just the ninth player in LSU history to earn that distinction. Williams was a finalist for the Thorpe Award (Nation’s Top Defensive Back) and a consensus All-America selection.
The Percy E. Roberts Outstanding Offensive Player Award was given to three players – quarterback Joe Burrow, running back Nick Brossette, and wide receiver Justin Jefferson.
Burrow became the first player in LSU history to throw for 2,500 yards and rush for 350 yards in a season.
Brossette led the Tigers with 922 rushing yards and his 14 TDs ranked second in the league. Jefferson led all LSU receivers in receptions (50), yards (788) and touchdowns (4).
Cole Tracy, a finalist for the Lou Groza Award and a second team All-America selection, was the winner of the Outstanding Special Teams Award. Tracy led SEC with 25 field goals and finished second in the league in scoring with 113 points.
Eight Tigers were selected as permanent team captains. Burrow, Brossette and Foster Moreau were named permanent offensive team captains; White, Delpit and Rashard Lawrence were selected permanent defensive captains, while Tracy and Blake Ferguson were named special teams captains.
