Reports: Cal RB Jaydn Ott enters transfer portal

Months after declaring that he would remain at Cal, running back Jaydn Ott entered transfer portal on Monday, multiple media outlets reported. Ott was slowed in the 2024 season by an ankle injury he sustained in the opener, a large reason why his stats declined significantly from the prior year. On Dec. 28, Ott tweeted a movie clip from "The Wolf of Wall Street," showing Leonardo DiCaprio's character saying, "I'm not leaving. I'm not (bleeping) leaving!" Ott captured All-Pac-12 first-team recognition in 2023, when he topped the soon-to-be-altered conference in rushing yardage (1,315) and rushing touchdowns (12) on 245 carries.
