Report: Georgia QB Jaden Rashada to enter transfer portal
Jaden Rashada’s college career will continue at another school.
The former Florida signee and Arizona State quarterback is entering the transfer portal, according to ESPN. Rashada spent the 2024 season at Georgia and did not play in a game.
Rashada was a four-star recruit and the No. 11 pro-style QB in the high school class of 2023. He initially committed to Miami, but flipped that verbal commitment to Florida. After signing with Florida, Rashada asked for his release from the Gators — more on that in a bit — and signed with Arizona State in February of 2023.
The California native appeared in three games for the Sun Devils in 2023 and transferred again at the end of the season. He ended up at Georgia with an apparent eye on competing for the starting job in 2025 and beyond with Carson Beck entrenched as the starter. Gunner Stockton served as the Bulldogs’ No. 2 QB in 2024 and started the team’s Sugar Bowl loss to Notre Dame on Jan. 2.
Not long after he transferred to Georgia in early 2024, Rashada filed a lawsuit against Florida coach Billy Napier and a booster over an NIL deal that never came together. Rashada said that he was promised a name, image and likeness deal north of $10 million as part of his commitment to Florida.
The lack of that NIL deal was the reason Rashada transferred from the Gators. He left after he didn’t receive his first payment and his recruitment to the school is now the subject of an NCAA investigation.
In three games with the Sun Devils a season ago, Rashada was 44-of-82 passing for 485 yards, four TDs and three interceptions. ASU was 3-9 a season ago before posting one of the biggest turnarounds in college football in 2024. Former Michigan State QB Sam Leavitt emerged as the starter as the Sun Devils won the Big 12 and made it to the College Football Playoff before losing 39-31 in double-overtime to Texas in the Peach Bowl on Jan. 1.

2025 freshmen to watch: Defense
2025 freshmen to watch: Defense
It’s time to look ahead to 2025.
Georgia’s 2024 season ended with a 23-10 loss to Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl on January 2. The Bulldogs now turn their focus to the offseason in preparation for the 2025 campaign.
UGASports has an early look at some freshmen to watch on the defensive side of the ball.
DT Elijah Griffin
Griffin is exactly the type of game-wrecking presence Georgia has needed along the defensive line. At 6-foot-5 and 300 pounds, the Pooler native profiles nicely as a 3-technique who could also play nose in Georgia’s defense. Griffin shined all year for Savannah Christian and dominated competition at the Under Armour All-American Game. With several big bodies leaving Athens, there should be ample opportunity for Griffin to play early in his career.
EDGE Isaiah Gibson
Gibson is an elite athletic specimen on the edge. Georgia lists the Warner Robins native at 6-foot-4 and 255 pounds, and he will only get bigger and stronger through his first few months in Georgia’s strength and conditioning program. The Bulldogs have used multiple first-year players in situational packages in recent years, and Gibson very well could be next on that list.
LB Zayden Walker
Walker already has impressive linebacker size, listed by Georgia at 6-foot-2 and 220 pounds. But Walker also has the athleticism to play in space and move from sideline to sideline. Similar with players along the defensive front, freshmen linebackers such as Chris Cole have been able to carve out situational roles for themselves. It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Walker on the field in some capacity in 2025.
