Report: Washington QB Re-Enters Transfer Portal As Kalen DeBoer Heads to Alabama

Shortly after news broke that Washington coach Kalen DeBoer is headed to Alabama to replace Nick Saban, former Mississippi State quarterback Will Rogers is re-entering the transfer portal, ESPN’s Tom VanHaaren reported Friday.

Rogers, who announced he would transfer to Washington back on Dec. 15, was expected to take over under center for Huskies standout Michael Penix Jr., who is entering the NFL draft.

In four seasons at Mississippi State, Rogers threw for 12,315 yards, 94 touchdowns and 28 interceptions.
