Washington Quarterback Will Rogers Enters Transfer Portal Again
Washington quarterback Will Rogers has made headlines once again as he enters the transfer portal for the second time in just two months. Rogers initially entered the portal on November 27, following the departure of his coach at Mississippi State. However, he soon announced his transfer to Washington on December 15. Surprisingly, recent developments have now prompted his re-entry into the portal.
The recent decision to grant immediate eligibility to college athletes who have previously transferred multiple times has opened up new opportunities for Rogers. Due to a temporary restraining order, he is now eligible to transfer without penalty and seek a new school. This has undoubtedly played a role in his decision to explore other options.
Rogers is not alone in his decision to enter the transfer portal. Several other Washington players, including cornerback Jabbar Muhammad, safety Mishael Powell, linebacker Ethan Barr, and tight end Tre Watson, have also made the move on Friday. This exodus of players could potentially have a significant impact on the team’s future.
The quarterback position, in particular, is feeling the heat from these transfers. With Rogers on the verge of leaving, Washington has already seen quarterbacks Dylan Morris and Will Haskell enter the transfer portal. This leaves the team with limited options at the position, raising concerns about the future of the team’s offense.
In an effort to mitigate the impact of these departures, Washington has signed four-star quarterback Austin Mack in the 2023 class. However, the roster will still lack experience in the quarterback department if Rogers ultimately decides to leave.
As the situation unfolds, Washington and its fans anxiously await Rogers’ final decision. The outcome will undoubtedly have ramifications for the team’s future success. Stay tuned to The Puck Drop for all the latest updates on this developing story.
