Texas A&M’s 2024 season ended at a disappointing 8-4 and 5-3 in SEC play after losing three out of their last four games, including the season finale 17-7 loss to rival Texas in the revival of the Lone Star Showdown.
With Early Signing Day set to begin on Wednesday, Elko and his staff are on fire recruiting-wise. They have landed three commitment flips, including former Missouri commits, led by five-star OL Lamont Rogers and four-star athlete/running back Jamarion Morrow.
However, Tuesday’s transfer portal activity has been busy for the Aggies, as three more players entered their names, including wide receiver Cyrus Allen and two quarterbacks: Redshirt sophomore Conner Weigman and junior Jaylen Henderson.
While Weigman’s exit isn’t surprising after he was benched in favor of redshirt freshman quarterback Marcel Reed, Henderson’s 2024 season was uneventful and injury-ridden, as the junior has proven that he can start in the SEC after starting three games during the latter half of the 2023 season.
Henderson’s best game came during his first start as an Aggie during former head coach Jimbo Fisher’s final game with the program against Mississippi State. He threw and ran for four touchdowns in one of the more memorable debuts. Henderson finished his A&M career with 715 passing yards, six touchdowns and two interceptions,
Jaylen Henderson has two years of eligibility remaining, while the Aggies only have two scholarship quarterbacks on the roster.
