Report: Georgia's Jacob Eason expected to transfer to Washington

Bulldogs quarterback Jacob Eason is expected to transfer from Georgia to Washington, according to a report by the Seattle Times.

Eason told a Seattle Times reporter that he had not yet made a decision: "Right now, I'm just spending time with this team ... and we'll go from there." He denied talking with Huskies coaches about a transfer, calling it "illegal."

Eason is from Washington and starred at Lake Stevens High School, where he was a five-star recruit and the 2015 Gatorade national player of the year.

Eason, who started for the Bulldogs last season and was the team's starter in Week 1, suffered a knee injury that knocked him out of the team's season opener against Appalachian State.
