Cayden Lee News, Rumors, Updates - Ole Miss Rebels

Joining Missouri Lee has committed to Missouri, On3.com reports.

Impact Lee was a late entry into the transfer portal, possibly due to uncertainty at Ole Miss about Trinidad Chambliss's 2026 eligibility. The wideout will still be catching passes from a familiar face with Missouri, as former Ole Miss starter Austin Simmons joined the Tigers this offseason as well. Lee caught 44 passes for 635 yards and three touchdowns in 2025, and he could serve as Missouri's top pass-catcher in 2026.

Hitting transfer portal Lee is slated to enter the transfer portal, On3.com reports.

Impact Lee is coming off a combined 101 catches for 1,509 yards and five touchdowns over the past two seasons in Oxford, but it appears he'll head elsewhere for the 2026 campaign. Given that former head coach Lane Kiffin has taken the job at LSU, it's possible Lee will be Baton Rouge-bound to join him, though it's unclear.

Probable before semifinal Lee (undisclosed) is probable for Thursday's game against Miami.

Impact Unlike all other offensive players also listed probable for Thursday, Lee is a new addition to Mississippi's availability report.

At the very least, Lee's probable status suggests it is just a precautionary measure.

Impact Lee had his lowest output in almost two months, as quarterback Jaxson Dart threw for just 143 yards in the Egg Bowl win.

NOVEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Saturday Lee (undisclosed) is set to play Saturday versus Georgia, per the SEC availability report.

Impact Lee was listed as probable on Friday's update of the report, so it's not surprising that he'll be a go as expected. The sophomore enters the day with 36 grabs for 615 yards and a touchdown under his belt through nine contests.

Over 100 yards in laugher Lee notched five receptions (on seven targets) for 127 yards during Saturday's 63-31 victory over Arkansas.

Regardless of the health of Harris next weekend, a much tougher matchup looms against Georgia.
