Snippet added JS file being ignored by Delayed settings

Hello,

We’ve added a JS file onto our site, via a snippet that adds it to the footer. The filename “header-loader.js” has been added into the Delayed JS file paths, however it’s not delayed.

Does this need to be added another way for litespeed to delay the script? Others are working fine. Did try without defer in the script tags and moving to header instead.

function header_js_loader(){ ?>
<script defer src=https://site.com/header-loader.js”>
<?php }
add_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘header_js_loader’);
