Ole Miss Football Transfer Portal Tracker 2026

OXFORD — The transfer portal opens January 2, 2026 and closes January 16, 2026. Stay tuned as we update each player announcing his return to Ole Miss as well as those coming in and those leaving. 

While Ole Miss will certainly be active in the portal, first and foremost, head coach Pete Golding and staff will continue to work to retain the players on the current roster. Center Brycen Sanders, defensive lineman Will Echoles, EDGE/LB Suntarine Perkins, and defensive back Antonio Kite all have announced their intent to return.

There are reports from sources that Cayden Lee, Deuce Alexander and Caleb Odom have also agreed to terms to return.

In the portal, among other areas of need, Ole Miss will look for the following positions: offensive tackle, linebacker, secondary, and pass rushers, and possibly running back and quarterback, given the pending result of Trinidad Chambliss’ request for a waiver for an additional year and Kewan Lacy’s decision on whether to stay in Oxford or transfer.
