12) OL Kenton Jerido, South Alabama

1) QB DJ Lagway, Florida
DJ Lagway becomes a significant addition to the transfer portal after announcing his intent to seek a fresh start following another underwhelming season at Florida. The former five-star recruit seemed committed to the Gators, even after the departure of head coach Billy Napier, but plans have changed following the team's season. Now, the Texas native is among the top players available and will be a considerable priority target for several contending programs.

2) QB Dylan Raiola, Nebraska
Dylan Raiola's decision to enter the transfer portal comes just weeks after Nebraska fired offensive line coach Donovan Raiola, who is also the star quarterback's uncle. The writing was on the wall for the former five-star to depart from the program following the move, especially when factoring in the back-to-back lackluster seasons for the Cornhuskers through Raiola's first two years. The dynamic quarterback will have several suitors as he's a marquee name on the market.
3) QB Brendan Sorsby, Cincinnati
Brendan Sorsby began his college career at Indiana, where he spent two seasons before transferring to Cincinnati. The dual-threat quarterback put his name on the map this past year, leading the Bearcats to the best season in recent years, while combining for 36 total touchdowns (27 passing and nine rushing). Sorsby may not be a team's top option with the names above him available, but he'll undoubtedly be in the mix to land with a contender, especially if they miss out on the top three names.
4) DB Jordan Castell, Florida
Jordan Castell joins the list of outgoing transfers set to depart from Florida this offseason as the Gators continue to undergo a variety of staff changes. The defensive back is a former top recruit with several years of eligibility remaining. Between his upside and potential to make an immediate impact, expect several programs to be interested in his services.
5) TE Amir Jackson, Florida
Amir Jackson committed to Florida as a highly recruited prospect out of high school. At six-foot-five, the tight end's large frame and versatility as a pass catcher made him an intriguing fit for nearly any program in the country. Nonetheless, with Billy Napier gone, Jackson has no motive to stick around, which is precisely why he's headed to the transfer portal.
6) RB KD Daniels, Florida
KD Daniels joined Florida as one of the top-ranked running backs in his respective recruiting class. Looking to prove how dynamic he can be in what was hoped to be an explosive offense, the Mississippi native was quickly disappointed by his inability to carve out a sizable role. Now, he tries his hand at a fresh start in the transfer portal.
7) CB Cai Bates, Florida State
Cai Bates landed with Florida State as one of the most versatile defensive backs in his recruiting class, but since joining the Seminoles, he's struggled to carve out a large enough role to prove it. At six-foot-two, Bates has the size and speed to be an impact defender in nearly any scheme, and he'll have the chance to show precisely why reopening his recruitment in the transfer portal.
8) EDGE Paul Oyewale, TCU
Paul Oyewale has spent the last three seasons at TCU, where he's shown flashes of how impactful he can be in the Horned Frogs' defense. Racking up 47 total tackles, five sacks, and a forced fumble over the last two years, Oyewale could be an underrated addition for whatever team lands him in the portal.
9) DB Jiquan Sanks, Cincinnati
Jiquan Sanks served as a reliable defender in the Bearcats' defense over the last two years. Coming off a career year, totaling 50 tackles, four pass defenses, and a forced fumble, the defensive back has plenty of solid stats and film to bode well for him in the transfer portal. Keep an eye on Sanks to find a home quickly.
10) S DJ Burks, Appalachian State
DJ Burks has quietly made a name for himself as a focal piece in the App State secondary over the last couple of seasons. Totaling 65 tackles, five pass defenses, two forced fumbles, and two interceptions, leading the Mountaineers' defense this past year, Burks will be a priority target for several teams in the portal.
11) DB Josiah Davis, Florida
Josiah Davis becomes yet another Florida player to announce his intent to enter the transfer portal on Monday. The safety landed with the Gators, hoping to carve out a role in the team's secondary quickly, but after learning that wasn't in the cards, the defender heads to the portal seeking a fresh start.

Kenton Jerido adds his name to the list of talented offensive linemen in the transfer portal after an impressive season at South Alabama. The All-Conference nominee will likely garner plenty of interest in the portal, especially as teams look to bolster their depth in the trenches ahead of next season.
