Texas A&M Football: Marcel Reed Planning To Transfer

Former Top Recruit Made The Announcement Via Twitter

Former 5-star recruit Marcel Reed announced via Twitter that he plans to transfer from Texas A&M. Reed was the Aggies' highest-rated signee in their 2022 recruiting class, but he did not see the field last season.

Reed is a 6-foot-4, 280-pound defensive lineman from Arlington, Texas. He was considered one of the top prospects in the country coming out of high school and was heavily recruited by several of the nation's top programs.

Reed Was Expected To Compete For Starting Role

Reed was expected to compete for a starting role on the Aggies' defensive line this season, but he was reportedly passed on the depth chart by several other players.

Reed's departure is a blow to the Aggies' depth on the defensive line. The Aggies are already thin at the position and will now have to rely on several unproven players to step up.

It is unclear where Reed will transfer to, but he is expected to have several options. Reed is a talented player with a lot of potential, and he should be able to find a new home where he can make an immediate impact.
