Ex-Georgia Star Harris Enters Transfer Portal Again
24 Dec, 2025
Summary
- A.J. Harris is entering the transfer portal for the second time.
- He was a five-star recruit previously committed to Georgia.
- Harris earned All-Big Ten third-team honors in 2024.
A.J. Harris, a highly-touted defensive back, is once again entering the NCAA transfer portal, marking his second move from a collegiate program. Harris initially committed to Georgia as a five-star recruit but later transferred to Penn State. He showed promise with the Nittany Lions, earning a spot on the All-Big Ten third team in 2024.
Despite high expectations and preseason All-Big Ten recognition for 2025, Harris's performance in his most recent season was reportedly a disappointment. He recorded 33 tackles, a pass breakup, and a fumble recovery. A missed game due to illness and being benched during a key matchup also contributed to his struggles.
This marks Harris's second departure from a team, as he initially left Georgia before joining Penn State. While a return to his former team, the Georgia Bulldogs, is considered unlikely, the situation highlights the fluid nature of college football rosters and the increasing prevalence of player transfers.
