Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks added another elite piece from the transfer portal on Monday, with former UTSA cornerback Kam Alexander announcing his commitment on social media.
Ducks Wire confirmed that Alexander was in Eugene for a visit over the weekend, and obviously it went well enough for him to make a quick decision and join the team.
Alexander played a single season at UTSA after transferring from Sam Houston. At UTSA, he racked up 34 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 sack, 2 INTs, and 15 PBUs in 13 games. He entered the transfer portal in late December and has been taking a handful of visits since then.

Alexander has one year of eligibility remaining thanks to a redshirt season in 2022.
The Ducks lost starting CB Khyree Jackson to the NFL Draft this offseason, so they are looking at potential replacements in the transfer portal to add to an already talented group of young defensive backs on the roster.
