Devontae Houston is no longer with UConn football. The running back from Roanoke, Alabama has decided to redshirt this year and enter the transfer portal, as first reported by Graham Chamberlain of Rivals.
The junior averaged 6.9 yards per carry last season and had 126 rushing yards on 19 carries and a 37-yard screen pass for a touchdown against FIU in his best performance of this season. He had seven carries in the team’s first two games and logged one carry last week against Duke before leaving the game.
Houston and linebacker Eriq Gilyard, who transferred in from Kansas this year, are no longer listed on the official UConn roster.
