Abdur-Rahmaan Yaseen News, Rumors, Updates - James Madison Dukes

De-commits from Dukes Yaseen will de-commit from James Madison after initially opting to transfer to the Dukes, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Yaseen spent 2024 with USF, when he reeled in 21 catches for 254 yards. It's unclear why he decided to back off his pledge to James Madison, but wherever he does end up, he'll have one year of eligibility remaining.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Heading to JMU Yaseen has committed to play for James Madison for the 2025 season, per Pete Nakos of On3.com.

Impact Yaseen will join the Dukes following a single season with USF. The senior receiver and former Purdue transfer caught 21 passes for 254 scoreless yards for the Bulls in 2024. He will retain a single year of eligibility with James Madison.

JANUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Leaving USF Yassen has entered the NCAA transfer portal, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Yaseen will seek out opportunities in the portal after spending one season with South Florida. The 6-foot-2 redshirt senior tallied 21 receptions for 254 yards across nine games this fall after spending the previous three seasons with Purdue.

JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 15-yard reception Yaseen (undisclosed) recorded one reception (on two targets) for 15 yards during Saturday's 63-30 win over Tulsa.

Impact Finally, Yaseen has logged a reception, something he had not done since Week 5. Before Week 6, he had been one of South Florida's top wideouts, getting 29 targets in five games that saw him record 17 receptions for 223 yards. Yaseen will look to finish off his 2024 regular season in style by excelling at Rice on Nov. 30.

NOVEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't play Saturday Yaseen (undisclosed) was unable to play in Saturday's loss to Navy.

Impact Yaseen was listed as probable heading into the game but ended up being unable to play. His next chance to play will be next week versus Charlotte.

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs nine snaps Friday Yaseen (undisclosed) logged nine snaps during Friday's matchup against Florida Atlantic.

Impact Yaseen was previously listed as questionable against the Owls after missing USF's previous two games with an undisclosed injury but was able to make his return against Florida Atlantic. Though the senior receiver did not record any counting stats during Friday's game, his return to the field was encouraging to see. Given his limited snap count, it can be assumed that he still may not be at 100 percent, though he can likely be looked at as probable against Navy this coming Saturday.

NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Injury and DNP confirmed Yaseen (undisclosed) did not play during South Florida's 35-25 win Saturday against UAB.

Impact South Florida's team website confirmed Yaseen is recovering from an injury. Currently, the Bulls are expected to play their next game at Florida Atlantic on Nov. 1.

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

DNP for Memphis game Yaseen did not play during South Florida's 21-3 loss Saturday against Memphis.

Impact Going into the Memphis game, Yaseen had logged at least multiple targets for each of the 2024 Bulls' matchups. He does not qualify for a redshirt either, considering they have played five games already this year. Yaseen has been too valued a wideout to be benched completely, so it appears something undisclosed is affecting Yaseen, which may be the case indefinitely.

OCTOBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Leads receivers Saturday Yaseen hauled in 5 of 8 targets for 84 yards during Saturday's 45-10 defeat versus Tulane.

Impact Yaseen had his best outing of the season Saturday as he set season highs in targets and receiving yards and tied a season best with five receptions. He led the team in all receiving categories as he played with both Byrum Brown and Bryce Archie after Brown left with an undisclosed injury. He will hope Brown is able to return in Week 7 versus Memphis, because Yaseen's production would likely take a significant dip without him.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Leads receiving attack Saturday Yaseen had five receptions (on six targets) for 73 yards during Saturday's 48-3 win over Bethune-Cookman.

Impact Yaseen got his season off to a strong start, leading the team in receptions, targets and receiving yards. It was a promising start to his Bulls' career after three seasons at Purdue, as he has clearly already found a connection with Byrum Brown. While the Bulls will run the ball a lot this season, Brown can sustain productive receivers given his knack for making big plays.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Active in practice Yaseen (lower body) appears to be a full practice participant in a video posted to USF Football's X account.

Impact Yaseen missed the final six games of Purdue's 2023 season with a lower body injury. Now having graduated and transferred to South Florida, he figures to be a staple of the Bulls' passing attack this fall. He appears to have fully recovered and should be at full capacity when the season rolls around.

Out vs. Indiana Yaseen (undisclosed) is out for Purdue's game Saturday against Indiana.

Impact Yaseen will have sat out the entire second half of Purdue's 2023 season. Limited by the extended absence, he still finished this year with his best output across any campaign. Yaseen logged 25 receptions for 329 yards (13.2 averaged per catch) across his six games.

NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Uncertain vs Minnesota Head coach Ryan Walters indicated Monday that Yaseen (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against Minnesota, Dub Jellison of Rivals.com reports.

Impact Yaseen has missed three consecutive games to injury and the team announced Monday that fellow receiver Mershawn Rice (undisclosed) is set to miss the rest of the season, making his return of the utmost importance. The junior wide receiver has totaled 25 receptions for 323 yards across six games.

NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Saturday Yaseen (undisclosed) remains out for Saturday's game versus Michigan.

Impact Yaseen will miss a third consecutive game while working his way back from an undisclosed issue, leaving the Boilers without one of the bigger weapons in the passing attack again. He'll look toward Week 11 against Minnesota for his next opportunity to return.

NOVEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Yaseen (undisclosed) is out Saturday against Nebraska.

Impact It'll be the second straight game Yaseen's missed after he was sidelined in Week 7 vs. Ohio State prior to Purdue's bye. It's a tough blow for the Boilermakers' offense, as Yaseen had 25 catches for 329 yards through his first six games. Deion Burks and TJ Sheffield should see expanded target shares while Yaseen's sidelined.

OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Status remains murky Yaseen (undisclosed) is questionable for Purdue's game Saturday at Nebraska, Tom Dienhart of On3.com reports.

Impact According to Dienhart, Yaseen has not recovered promisingly enough to have his availability status probable, unlike some of his other teammates. Ideally for Purdue, the team has him available as an option for quarterback Hudson Card, who significantly struggled without him during his previous game Saturday against Ohio State.

OCTOBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play versus Syracuse Purdue announced that Yaseen (knee) is unlikely to play Saturday versus Syracuse.

Impact Yaseen has not played yet in 2022 for the Boilermakers. The redshirt sophomore will have his first real chance at returning against Florida Atlantic.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited participant in scrimmage Yaseen (knee) scrimmaged in a limited capacity during Purdue's fall camp Saturday, D.J. Fezler of SI.com reports.

Impact Yaseen is still working his way back into practice this fall as he recovers from knee surgery. The junior wideout caught five of his eight targets for 93 yards between Weeks 4 and 5 last year, but he was forced to sit out the remainder of the 2021 campaign due to injury. Yaseen will look to return to full participation before Purdue's Week 1 opener against Penn State on Sept. 1.

AUGUST 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss Spring with knee injury Yaseen (knee) will miss Spring football, Rivals.com reports.

Impact Yaseen had his season cut short with a knee injury back in October. He will still be rehabbing during the Spring with the hope of being ready to go for Week 1.

FEBRUARY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Saturday Yaseen is unavailable Saturday against Oregon State for an undisclosed reason, Tom Dienhart of GoldandBlack.com reports.

Impact A reason for Yaseen's absence wasn't given, but he's one of two receivers sidelined for the season opener. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return next Saturday against Connecticut.
