Dylan Raiola announces transfer from Nebraska to Oregon, Jordan Seaton says
Colorado chapter closing
By The Associated Press
Quarterback Dylan Raiola announced Monday on social media he intends to
transfer from Nebraska to Oregon.
Raiola was the highest-ranked recruit to sign with Nebraska and started 22
games over two seasons. He broke his leg against Southern California on Nov. 1
and missed the Cornhuskers' last four games.
On Monday night, Colorado left tackle Jordan Seaton announced on social media
he was closing the chapter on his time with the Buffaloes. Seaton was a
five-star recruit and the anchor of coach Deion Sanders' offensive line for the
past two seasons.
"I never imagined this journey would come to a close in this way, but I am
deeply grateful for every moment that led me here," Seaton posted on his
Instagram account.
Ducks' QB room
Oregon's quarterback room for 2026 remains unsettled even with the addition of
Raiola as Dante Moore decides whether he will enter the NFL draft.
Moore said Friday after a 56-22 loss to No. 1 Indiana in a College Football
Playoff semifinal that he was uncertain on declaring for the draft or returning
to Oregon for a final season. Moore went 24-of-39 for 285 yards with an
interception and two fumbles against the Hoosiers.
He completed nearly 73% of his throws for 3,280 yards, with 28 touchdowns and
nine interceptions this season.
Two of Moore's backups, Austin Novosad and Luke Moga, have entered the transfer
portal. Should Moore remain at Oregon, Raiola could redshirt next season before
taking over as starter in 2027.
Raiola completed 72.4% of his passes for 2,000 yards and 18 touchdowns in nine
games this season. In his freshman year in 2024, he threw for 2,819 yards with
13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
Seaton's departure
Seaton protected quarterback Shedeur Sanders during a 2024 season that saw
two-way standout Travis Hunter win the Heisman Trophy. Last season, Seaton
allowed one sack and five pressures before missing the final three games due to
injury.
In his social media post, Seaton thanked Deion Sanders, the coaching staff and
the team.
"The relationships built and the memories created during my time here will stay
with me forever," Seaton posted. "To my brothers who will be on that field next
season, keep grinding, keep believing, and keep rolling. And to the fans of
Colorado, thank you for welcoming me with open arms and supporting me every
step of the way.
"This chapter may be closing, but the impact of this experience and the people
who helped shape it will stay with me for life."
