Texas transfer portal tracker

Aaron Bryant, DT

Aaron Bryant spent three years with the Texas Longhorns as a depth player at the defensive tackle position. The former four-star prospect never got a consistent role on defense, leaving a mere 13 games under his belt.

Bryant now enters the transfer portal to join a team where he'd be a day-one starter. His goal is to improve his stock to declare for the 2026 NFL draft.

Derion Gullette, LB

Derion Gullette was a highly sought-after linebacker prospect coming out of high school. He had offers from the Alabama Crimson Tide, Oklahoma Sooners, Ohio State Buckeyes and more but decided to take his talents to Texas.

However, after two games with the program, he threw his hat into the transfer portal.

Jaray Bledsoe, DT

Jaray Bledsoe appeared in eight games in the 2023 college football season but has been made to endure a diminished role this season. With his collegiate football eligibility running out, Bledsoe has elected to enter the transfer portal.

Jay'Vion Cole, CB

Jay'Vion Cole appeared just once in the 2024 college football season. He managed an interception and tackle in the game, showcasing his potential in the process.

After entering the transfer portal, he will be on the hunt for his fourth team in as many years.

Johntay Cook, WR

So far, Johntay Cook is the only Texas Longhorns wide receiver who can enter the transfer portal. He left the Longhorns in November and is searching for a new home.

The dynamic pass catcher played in 20 games for the Longhorns and recorded 16 catches. Injuries have plagued the former five-star prospect's collegiate football career, and he will look for a more favorable situation with his next move.

Tausili Akana, LB

Tausili Akana is a redshirt freshman blessed with great size at the linebacker position. By the time the dust settles, he should have a host of suitors via the transfer portal.

Tiaoalii Savea, DT

Tiaoalii Savea moved to Texas after a mixed two-season spell at Arizona. He has struggled to adapt to the Longhorns' system and will now look for his third collegiate team ahead of the 2025 season.
