Arizona Wildcats CB Ephesians Prysock enters transfer portal
Arizona Wildcats cornerback Ephesians Prysock has entered the transfer portal following Jedd Fisch’s decision to join Washington as its next head coach.
“Officially in the transfer portal,” Prysock said on social media on Tuesday morning.
The sophomore is coming off his second season with the Wildcats where he racked 61 tackles, an interception and seven passes defensed across 13 games played, all career marks.
The 6-foot-4, 190-pound cornerback is the latest Wildcat to enter the portal after running back Jonah Coleman and quarterback Brayden Dorman did the same.
The portal, which closed earlier this month, reopened for Arizona players following Fisch’s departure for Washington. They have 30 days to decide whether or not to test the portal or stay put in Tucson.
It’s not just Fisch heading to Washington, either, as a good majority of his coaching staff is expected to join him in Washington.
“It’s going to be our goal to get all of them here and to get that crew together and stay together,” Fisch told reporters during his introductory press conference on Tuesday. “We have some fantastic coaches.
“I hope all of them come with us here and we’re able to bring that camaraderie, the personal touch, the families all together and I think we will.”
Other names to watch as Arizona goes through the head-coaching change include quarterback Noah Fifita and wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan.
In 12 games played last season, Fifita threw for 2,869 yards and 25 touchdowns to six interceptions as a redshirt freshman.
McMillan meanwhile caught 90 balls for 1,402 yards and 10 touchdowns across 13 games.

Person accused of making terroristic threats to medical facility in northern Arizona
PAGE, AZ (AZFamily) — A person accused of making terroristic threats toward a northern Arizona medical facility was arrested Friday morning.
Just after 10:30 p.m., police received a report of a person calling the facility and threatening to kill staff and Native Americans, according to the Page Police Department.
Authorities said staff placed the facility on lockdown until officers identified the suspect and arrested them outside their home.
The suspect was booked on charges of disorderly conduct, threatening and intimidating, and making terroristic threats. Police have not publicly identified the person.
“The Page Police Department is grateful for and supports the medical staff’s decision to put the medical facility into lockdown until the suspect was arrested and the situation was rendered safe,” the department said in a Facebook post.

NFL mock draft: 4-round projections for Arizona Cardinals
In these four-round projections, the Arizona Cardinals don’t get a tackle until the fourth round.
We are just days away from the 2026 NFL draft, and that means some final mock drafts. What direction will the draft take the Arizona Cardinals?
Draft Wire’s Curt Popejoy put together a four-round mock draft for the Cardinals. They go defense early but rebuild the offense for 2026 and moving forward, including landing their potential franchise quarterback.
Cardinals 4-round mock draft
Here are the players in the first four rounds Popejoy projects for Arizona.
- Round 1: Ohio State EDGE/LB Arvell Reese
- Round 2: Alabama QB Ty Simpson
- Round 3: Clemson WR Antonio Williams
- Round 4: Florida OT Austin Barber
What we think of the picks
The Cardinals want to trade out of the third pick and draft a tackle, so not getting a tackle until Round 4 seems unlikely, although they did meet with Barber. They do have options at right tackle for 2026 already on the roster.
Reese would be a great pick if they don’t trade back, as they badly need pass-rushing help off the edge.
Drafting Simpson seems inevitable at this point, so it has to be in a mock draft, although the feeling is they will need to go up into Round 1 again to get him.
Williams has speed and is almost six feet tall, but he does have short arms.

Detroit Lions NFL Draft Injury Report: Arizona State CB Keith Abney
Due to significant injuries to the CB position last year which includes a shoulder surgery for Terrion Arnold, the Lions CB position scored a 6/10 need on my Lions Defensive Draft Need Rankings. Thus, an early-round selection of a young, healthy prospect like Keith Abney would not come as a surprise. He enters the draft with very low medical concern level.
Here is the excerpt from my medical report on Keith Abney:
(Ages in parentheses are at start of 2026 season and are factored into the concern level. Injury info and ages based on available public information are unverified and subject to update. Games played data courtesy of sports-reference.com.)
Keith Abney, CB (21) – Arizona State
Projected round 2-3. #43 on Jeff Risdon board Feb 19.
Concern level 0/10
There is an isolated report of a hand injury but no corroborating information. Even if the hand injury is true, that’s of minimal to no long-term concern.
His availability in his final two seasons has been perfect. Overall, Abney appears to be medically clean and is at an excellent age.
He finished college with 6 INT and 21 PBU.
