On To The Next One: Lazarius “Pep” Levingston

Lazarius Levingston was picked in the seventh round (#215 overall) by the Seattle Seahawks.  The former LSU Tiger, better known as “Pep” was the last player from his class at LSU to be selected in the 2011 NFL Draft.  He has experience playing at the defensive end and defensive tackle positions.  He also now has experience with more than one sports agent.

Pep Levingston was represented by Alvin Nelson of Cannon and Nelson Sports on draft day.  He is now represented by Andy Simms of PlayersRep Sports.  Nelson also represents Markell Carter, a linebacker out of Central Arkansas, who was the #204 overall pick of the 2011 Draft.

Pep Levingston joins Stevan Ridley (RB from LSU – #73 overall to New England), Johnny Patrick (DB from Louisville – #88 overall to New Orleans), and Brian Rolle (LB from Ohio State – #203 overall to Philadelphia) as PlayersRep Sports clients selected in the 2011 NFL Draft.

Our 2011 NFL Draft listing of agents for the players selected in rounds 1-7 has been updated to reflect this change in representation and all other changes that we have posted in our On To The Next One column.
