BOOM! Ole Miss lands Michigan TE Brady Prieskorn out of transfer portal

OXFORD, Miss. — Former Michigan tight end Brady Prieskorn has committed to Ole Miss out of the NCAA transfer portal, choosing the same program where his older brother Caden once became a household name. It’s a move that brings Prieskorn into a tight end room with deep tradition — and into a place where his family name already carries weight.
Prieskorn spent two seasons with the Michigan Wolverines, developing behind one of the nation’s deeper position groups. He did not see action as a true freshman in 2024, but began carving out a role for himself, appearing in three games this season. He will be a redshirt sophomore when he arrives in Oxford — with time and a huge upside on his side.
Ole Miss is a place that needs no introduction for the Prieskorn family.
Brady’s brother, Caden Prieskorn, was one of the most productive tight ends the Rebels have had in recent memory, posting 850 receiving yards and seven touchdowns across the 2023 and 2024 seasons before moving on to the Cleveland Browns. Now, Brady will look to follow a similar path — carving out his own role while benefiting from a system that knows how to maximize tight end talent.
Before his time in Ann Arbor, Prieskorn was one of the most highly regarded prospects in the Midwest. He entered college as a four-star recruit, ranked No. 150 nationally in the Rivals Industry Rankings, the No. 10 tight end in his class, and the No. 2 overall player in the state of Michigan out of Rochester Adams High School.
For Ole Miss, this is a long-term addition — a player with pedigree, athleticism, and familiarity with high-level competition. For Prieskorn, it’s a chance to reset, grow, and step into a program where the blueprint has already been drawn.
Oxford worked once for the Prieskorns. Now, Brady gets his turn.
