Syracuse football: Linton enters transfer portal, three offers extended

Related Topics: Syracuse, American football

The Syracuse Orange football team lost another member of the two-deep yesterday.

Defensive end/linebacker Steve Linton entered the transfer portal. Linton had 22 tackles last season including 3.5 sacks and two fumble recoveries. His speed on the edge was often utilized in passing situations and the hope is that some of Syracuse’s younger defensive ends will be able to step into that role in 2023.

We’ve also learned that the Orange have offered three transfers: Elijah Jeudy, defensive linemand from Texas A&M, Paris Shand, defensive lineman from Arizona and De’Coldest Crawford, wide receiver from Nebraska.
