Kamari Morales announces he will enter transfer portal

Tar Heel tight end Kamari Morales announces he will enter the transfer portal when it opens, becoming one of many expected to leave UNC.

The transfer portal is set to open, causing another off-season of mayhem as collegiate football programs find ways to maneuver around new territory.

Many coaches around the nation have already started to prepare pitches to add and retain talent to the rosters. Mack Brown, who had been critical of the transfer portal hinted at potential tampering with expectations of some players leaving.

Well, we now know one of those players putting their name in the portal is five-year tight end [autotag]Kamari Morales[/autotag]. The Tar Heel took to social media, announcing he would be entering the transfer portal seeking new opportunities.

The move is not surprising with Morales’s drop in production this season. Morales appeared in 12 games but had his lowest receiving yards (158) in a season since 2020. This year was Morales’s first season since 2019, where he failed to get into the end zone for a score.

With Drake Maye likely moving on to the NFL, it makes sense that Morales did not want to return for one more year with a new QB at the helm.
