Tatum has appeared in 29 games since 2016.
“I appreciate all the support and love that I have always received at this great institution,” Tatum said.
“I would like to thank the current staff for coming in and truly helping us become not just better players but also better men,” he continued. “I will always be a VFL, but it is time for me to move on in my career and pursue different opportunities for myself as a person and as a player as a graduate transfer. There is no bad blood, and nothing bad between me and the coaches. It has been a mutual situation, and they have been great in helping me every step of the way. They want what is best for me just as much as I do.”
