Cincinnati defensive back trio Rayquan Adkins, Jayden Davis and Jabril White, along with tight end Payten Singletary entered into the portal.

During his senior campaign with the Bearcats, Singletary totaled a career-best 115 receiving yards and two touchdowns in 10 appearances.

It appeared Singletary was going to be in the mix to land the Bearcats starting tight end job before he decided to transfer elsewhere in recent days.
