In an expected move, Pitt defensive lineman Noah Palmer announced on Monday that he would be entering the NCAA transfer portal. Palmer, who was a redshirt junior at the time, walked on Senior Day, indicating that his career at Pitt was set to come to an end.
“I would like to thank my family and loved ones for supporting me through the thick and thin,” Palmer said in a message posted on Twitter. “I also want to thank my coaches and teammates at Pitt that I have built lifelong relationships with. With an incredible experience and a marketing degree in hand, I’m looking forward to the opportunity in this new stage of life.
