Gophers redshirt freshman running back Jaydon Wright plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal, a source confirmed to the Pioneer Press on Monday.
Wright missed the 2024 season with an injury and has been sidelined during spring practices, as well. He is the third scholarship player to enter the portal this spring, following quarterback Zach Pyron and linebacker David Amaliri last week.
One element in the amount of departures is the Gophers’ need to trim its roster down to 105 players before next season. That is the expected requirement incoming from the House settlement with the NCAA.
Wright was a three-star prospect from Bishop McNamara Catholic School in Kankakee, Ill. 247Sports first reported the news on Wright.
