MOBILE, AL. (WVUE) - In Mobile, former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron was beaming with pride.

Not only for his Tiger players here at the Senior Bowl, but also his Tigers Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase in the Super Bowl.

“The summer that Mickey Joseph had them catch 10,000 balls together, they got to know each other on their own, work each other feel, each other out. They got a great feel for each other. We saw this every day. Joe’s a champion. Joe’s got all the intangibles. He’s the smartest football player I’ve ever been around, and the players believe in him. Joe’s going to make a play. He’s cool as ice, he’s tough. He’s a great team player, hard worker. So is Ja’Marr. Ja’Marr is a hard worker. You can’t get Ja’Marr Chase off the field. Great guy at the line of scrimmage. Strong with his hands. I’m so proud of them,” said Ed Orgeron.
