Ohio State backup quarterback JP Andrade has entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal. Bill Rabinowitz of the Columbus Dispatch reported the news.

Andrade was a walk-on for the Buckeyes, joining the team in 2019. He turned down multiple scholarship opportunities to suit up for Ohio State, but now he’s decided to enter his name into the transfer portal and explore opportunities outside of Columbus.
