And then there was one.

With Taylen Green running out of eligibility, Arkansas was always going to have a new QB1 in 2026. But the quarterback room is dangerously thin after backups Trever Jackson and Grayson Wilson entered the transfer portal, leaving KJ Jackson wandering the Razorbacks’ facilities like Will Smith on the final episode of The Fresh Prince.

Now that the new transfer portal window lasts only two weeks, Jackson won’t be alone for long.

A source previously told Best of Arkansas Sports that head coach Ryan Silverfield and his newly assembled staff will rebuild the entire position through the transfer portal — sorry, Kane Archer — and are intent on heading into the 2026 season with four signal callers.
