Senior receiver DJ Chark caught his first touchdown pass of the season in the first quarter of LSU’s game against Arkansas.
With it, he became the first Tiger since Skyler Green in 2003 to score on the ground, through the air and in the return game in a single season.
Chark has two punt returns for a touchdown and scored on a 20-yard jet sweep against Syracuse. The 45-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Danny Etling is Chark’s fourth receiving touchdown of his career.
Chark is also the only player in the country with multiple return touchdowns, a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown.
