Maryland senior safety Zach Dancel and senior running back Albert Reid will transfer out of the football program, the school announced on Friday afternoon.
Dancel and Reid were granted their release by Maryland, and both players are expected to be immediately eligible to play as graduate transfers next year. Dancel is set to graduate from Maryland in May, while Reid will graduate later this summer.
Both struggled to climb the depth chart during Maryland’s spring practices, which wrapped up last weekend. Dancel took mostly second-team reps at safety throughout the spring, while Reid competed in a crowded backfield that included senior Brandon Ross and sophomore Jacquille Veii.
