Arkansas quarterback KJ Jefferson plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal, the Razorbacks star confirmed in a statement to On3. 247Sports initially reported on Nov. 29, shortly after Arkansas hired Bobby Petrino as offensive coordinator, that Jefferson would enter the portal following a disappointing season that saw Arkansas finish 4-8 while Jefferson threw for a career-low 2,107 yards and eight interceptions.
“It has been a dream to be captain and QB1 at the University of Arkansas,” Jefferson wrote in his statement. “Accomplishing those records and being mentioned amongst the great QBs in Razorback history was an honor, but the memories and friendships I’ve made with my coaches and teammates along the way are what I’ll cherish the most.
