Shane Lemieux (born May 12, 1997) is an American professional football guard for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Oregon, and was drafted by the New York Giants in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL draft.

Early life

Lemieux played at West Valley High School as a tight end and offensive lineman.[1] He was ranked as the 36th best offensive tackle prospect, and received offers from over half of the Pac-12.[2] A 3-star recruit, Lemieux committed to Oregon on May 3, 2014, choosing the Ducks over offers from Boise State, Michigan, NC State, and South Carolina, among others.[3]

College career

While Lemieux redshirted his freshman season, he did not miss a start between 2016 and 2019, starting 52 games over those four seasons.[4]

After his junior season, Lemieux and a group of teammates (including quarterback Justin Herbert) considered leaving for the NFL Draft, but collectively decided to stay.[5] Lemieux had also sought out an evaluation from the NFL's College Advisory Board and was advised to return to school.[6]

After his senior season, Lemieux was named a second-team All-American by both the Associated Press and Sporting News,[7] and was named first-team all-Pac-12.[8]
