Brennan, now a sixth-year senior at LSU, entered the transfer portal back in November of 2021 and then pulled himself out of the portal after meeting with the newly assembled Brian Kelly staff.
The Long Beach, Mississippi native has battled injury and unlucky timing to derail his LSU playing career at different parts of his tenure.
Brennan missed all of 2021 with an off-the-field injury as he was injured two days before the start of training camp in a freak fishing accident where he slipped on the pier.
In the 2020 season he threw for over 1,100 yards and 11 TDs before suffering season-ending injury against Missouri in week three of the season.
In 2019 Brennan sat behind Joe Burrow, that after losing out to Burrow for the starters role in 2018.
