Colorado Running Back Dylan Edwards Entering Transfer Portal: What This Means for Buffaloes' 2024 Season

In the latest college football news, Colorado running back Dylan Edwards is set to enter the transfer portal, along with three other top rushers from the Buffaloes' 2023 season. Edwards, a standout recruit, was a key addition for coach Deion Sanders and his staff, but his playing time decreased as the season progressed.

The departure of Edwards and other running backs like Sy'Veon Wilkerson has left Colorado with a void in their backfield. However, the Buffaloes have added transfer Dallan Hayden from Ohio State and are actively recruiting Rashad Amos from Miami (Ohio) to bolster their running game.

With over 30 players entering the transfer portal during the 2024 offseason, Colorado is navigating a period of transition. Despite the losses, the Buffaloes have secured commitments from four highly-touted players in the post-spring transfer window.

For Edwards, returning to his father's alma mater, Kansas State, could be a possible destination. His father, Leon Edwards, was a running back for the Wildcats in the early 1990s, adding a sentimental connection to the potential transfer.

As the college football landscape continues to evolve with player transfers and commitments, teams like Colorado are adapting to ensure a competitive roster for the upcoming season.

Stay tuned for more updates on college football transfers and developments as teams prepare for the 2024 season.
