Former 4-Star QB Tate Martell Taking Reps at WR After Transferring to Miami

The Miami Hurricanes' 2018-19 season begins Saturday night against Florida, and Tate Martell might find himself in a different role than what he envisioned when transferring to The U from Ohio State in January.

The former 4-star quarterback was warming up at receiver, wearing gloves and running routes, according to 247Sports' Andrew Ivins. Martell was catching passes from redshirt freshman quarterback Jarren Williams, who won the starting job over Martell and N'Kosi Perry.

Per Ivins, Hurricanes head coach Manny Diaz assured that Martell is open to the idea of playing receiver instead of quarterback.
