Buried in the depth chart and wanting to be closer to his family, the backup quarterback took to Instagram on Monday night to bid Rebel fans goodbye.
So in a not at all surprising development, backup Ole Miss quarterback Devante Kincade announced through Instagram on Monday night that he's transferring. He didn't say where he's heading, just that it will be closer to his home state of Texas.
On the surface, it's easy to assume that this is because of his spot on the depth chart. Kincade finished the preseason quarterback competition a distant third behind Chad Kelly and Ryan Buchanan, and despite Freeze's history of playing athletic backup QBs in packaged plays, he's attempted just 15 garbage-time passes in 2015.
