Tyrann Mathieu donates $1 million to LSU football team
Tyrann Mathieu and fellow Arizona Cardinal defensive Patrick Peterson returned to Baton Rouge on Saturday as honorary captains for LSU in its game against Alabama.
Mathieu made his presence felt early, as it was announced during the first quarter he was donating $1 million to the Tigers' football program so there can be upgrades made.
The donation matched the one Peterson made to the school's athletic department in 2015.
