The Wisconsin Badgers lost another member of their 2023 defensive line, as sixth-year senior Gio Paez is entering the transfer portal, according to several reports.

Paez, standing at 6’3, 310 pounds, recorded 23 tackles last season while playing in a rotational role as the nose tackle for the Badgers.

However, following his fifth season, it was unexpected that Paez would return, as the senior had not been a part of the offseason program thus far.

Now, Paez’s future becomes clearer as the defensive tackle is entering the transfer portal, electing to utilize his final season of eligibility before making a decision on his future.
