John Morgan didn’t get too much a chance to crack Arkansas’ defensive line rotation in 2023 after transferring from Pittsburgh. Apparently, New England like what it saw from him enough at Pitt and in the combine because the Patriots signed the one-year Razorback defensive to a rookie deal following the draft. Morgan played just a season in Fayetteville and ranked 20th on the team with 15 tackles. Four came for-loss and he added two sacks and a forced fumble as he spent a bulk of the year on the team’s second unit. At Pittsburgh, Morgan was much more productive. He had 11 quarterback hurries to ..read more

Former Arkansas and South Florida linebacker Antonio Grier signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers over the weekend following the NFL Draft. Grier was one of seven who played for Arkansas who had a shot at being taken in the draft. Only kicker Cam Little and offensive lineman Beaux Limmer were selected. Grier played just one season in Fayetteville, largley as the team’s third linebacker following his transfer from USF. He finised third among his position and seventh on the team with 36 tackles, earning more playing time as the season progressed. Arkansas lost almost its entire linebacking corps i ..read more

Former Arkansas offensive lineman Beaux Limmer is headed west. Limmer became the second Razorbacks player — behind kicker Cam Little — from this year’s draft class to be chosen in the 2024 NFL Draft when the Los Angeles Rams selected him with a sixth-round pick (217th overall) late Saturday. A three-year starter on the Razorbacks’ offensive line who played all three interior positions, Limmer made 41 starts for Arkansas in his college career — including 36 straight. He moved to center ahead of the 2023 season. Dane Brugler, an NFL draft analyst for The Athletic, had Limmer as a fifth-round pic ..read more

The wait for an Arkansas Razorback to be selected in the 2024 NFL Draft is over. The Jacksonville Jaguars selected kicker Cam Little in the sixth round (212th overall) of the draft Saturday. Little opted to forgo his senior year of eligibility for a shot at the draft, a decision that paid off for him. The Moore, Okla. native finished his three-year Arkansas career as the most accurate kicker in program history. For his career, Little made 53 of 64 field goal attempts for an 82.8 percent success rate and was a perfect 129-for-129 on extra points. He made seven kicks of 50 yards or more, includi ..read more

The man who goes by the first name Anthony should be a quick fan-favorite in Arkansas. Anthony Switzer, a hybrid defensive back-linebacker from Utah State, committed to Arkansas out of the transfer portal on Friday. He is, of course, no relation to former Arkansas football player, Oklahoma Sooners and Dallas Cowboys head coach Barry Switzer. But count on the references coming in the 2024 season. Switzer was an All-Mountain West honorable selection last year. He had 85 tackles, incluing eight for-loss, three sacks, an interception and four pass break-ups for the Aggies in his lone season in Log ..read more

The 2024 NFL Draft was set to begin Thursday night from Detroit in a spectacle that has gone from hardcore fans only to one of the biggest parties of the league’s calendar year. Arkansas has not been able to take much part in it, really, even though the program has had a player taken in the draft for 28 straight years. The Razorbacks won’t have any high-round selections in the 2024 iteration, either, but as many as six former Hogs could hear their name called during the event. Two Arkansas players were taken in the 2023 draft in center Ricky Stromberg and linebacker Drew Sanders. The year bef ..read more

After losing the top four linebackers from last year’s team to the transfer portal, Arkansas needed to spend the offseason rebuilding the position room. Larry Worth is now added to the mix to help. The former Jacksonville State linebacker committed to Arkansas on Saturday, the same day he took his official visit to Fayetteville. Worth registered 63 tackles for Jacksonville State in fall, finishing fifth on the team. He also picked off a ball, had six tackles for-loss, three sacks, three quarterback hurries, two pass break-ups and a forced fumble. Worth told WholeHogSports those numbers are ref ..read more

Arkansas offensive lineman Paris Patterson is entering the transfer portal, according to a report by the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. A former four-star recruit, Patterson signed with the Razorbacks in the winter of 2022. At one point, he found himself rated among the top 250 recruits in his class. But his time at Arkansas saw him leapfrogged on the depth chart by even younger players. Patterson was not included in the two-deep during spring drills and in the spring game found himself playing with the third team. The 350-pounder is the fourth Arkansas player to enter the portal since it re-opene ..read more

One the Arkansas football team’s positions of strength just became even stronger. Former Florida State running back Rodney Hill committed to the Razorbacks out of the transfer portal on Friday. Hill was the Seminoles’ third leading rusher last year, going for 190 yards on 50 carries. Those totals put him him in a similar Isaiah Augustave did for Arkansas last year. Augustave, who has one more years of eligibility than Hill – who has two years remaining – entered the transfer portal earlier in the week. Hill could compete with Utah transfer Ja’Quinden Jackson and returning back Rashod Dubinion ..read more

Sam Pittman and the Arkansas Razorbacks lost an important member of their special teams unit this week. Max Fletcher, the team’s starting punter from Melbourne, Australia, entered the transfer portal on Thursday, less than a week after the Razorbacks’ annual spring game. Fletcher was a rising name on special teams after a strong 2023 performance. He was named to the Ray Guy Award watchlist ahead of last season and increased his average yards per punt from 37.5 in 2022 to 46.9 in 2023. In doing so, Fletcher earned second-team All-SEC honors from coaches for his efforts during his sophomore seas ..read more
