Report: Navy inside linebacker Tama Tuitele enters transfer portal

Rivals.com reported via its NCAA Transfer Portal Twitter feed that Tuitele, a junior who played in 14 career games for the Midshipmen, was considering a transfer.

Tuitele, like all juniors, is due to sign the two-for-seven papers binding midshipmen to two more years at the Naval Academy and five years of military service. Tuitele can leave the academy with no repercussions before signing those papers before classes start for the fall semester.

Tuitele’s career at Navy has been beset by injuries. The Colorado native started four of six games as a freshman before suffering a season-ending injury against South Florida.
