lesterjeanheadshotslider


Lester Jean enters the 2010 season as FAU’s most polished wide receiver after leading the team with 38 receptions for 501 yards and 4 touchdowns last year. A product of Miami Norland and a native of Miami, the 6’3” 195 pound wide receiver is one of a handful of current Owls who have not been redshirted, and will be counted on as a senior leader. Jean is set to become the first college graduate in his family and is scheduled to earn his degree in December.
