Daelen Alexander - Commits to CCU Alexander has committed to Coastal Carolina, he announced.
Impact Alexander is coming off a solid 2025 campaign with Rice, where he rushed 74 times for 392 yards and three touchdowns. He averaged over five yards per carry. With few proven options on the Chanticleers' roster, Alexander has a shot at securing a significant role with his new team.

Impact Allen-Hendrix didn't see any playing time in 2025 while with Oklahoma State. He suffered an injury during spring camp. He'll look to work his way into the Chanticleers' RB rotation in 2026.

Impact Jackson will join the Chanticleers after spending one seasons with Arkansas. The 6-foot-3 redshirt freshman, who started his collegiate career with FSU as a top-500 prospect in the class of 2024, has yet to see more than a few snaps at the collegiate level.
JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Tristian Gardner - Lands with Coastal Carolina Gardner (transfer portal) has committed to joining the Chaunticleers, 247Sports.com reports.

Deuce Bailey - Transferring to Coastal Carolina Bailey will transfer to Coastal Carolina, he announced via his personal X account.
Impact Bailey spent his freshman season at Missouri State, and appeared in three total games, tossing for 335 yards, and two touchdowns on 23-of-47 passing. He also ran for 81 yards and a touchdown. Now, the promising freshman will take his talents to the Chanticleers, where he should still have a full four seasons of eligibility remaining.
JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE
Bryson Graves - Season-best output in Independence Bowl Graves caught six of 11 targets for 99 yards during Tuesday's 23-14 loss to Louisiana Tech in the Independence Bowl.
Impact Graves hadn't tallied more than five catches or 61 yards in a game prior to the bowl showing, so he certainly picked a good time to show up. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to earn the win, but the junior will have something to build off of heading into 2026. Graves turned in career-best marks for catches (35) and receiving yards (330) in 2025 and matched his two touchdowns from 2024, and he'll have one more year of eligibility to conclude his college tenure, whether it be with the Chants or elsewhere.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Robby Washington - Scores in bowl loss Washington reeled in 5 of 6 targets for 47 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 23-14 loss against Louisiana Tech.
Impact Washington produced his best output of the season against the Bulldogs, scoring his third touchdown of the year on a season-high five catches. The redshirt sophomore wideout was the Chanticleers' second-leading receiver in 2025 after he spent two seasons at Miami (FL). Next fall, he'll look to build on what was a career year.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Dominic Knicely - Logs receiving score in bowl loss Knicely logged three rushes for eight yards and reeled in 3 of 5 targets for 25 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 23-14 defeat to Louisiana Tech.
Impact Knicely was utilized as a supplementary option in the Chanticleers' running game, similarly to most of the 2025 season, but he did kick off the showing with a 20-yard receiving touchdown in the first half. The freshman running back has a bright future ahead of him, especially since he was already the RB2 for Coastal Carolina in his first college campaign.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Tad Hudson - Tops 300 passing yards in bowl game Hudson was 25-for-49 passing for 311 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Tuesday's 23-14 loss to Louisiana Tech.
Impact Hudson started again for the Chanticleers with Samari Collier (knee) on the shelf and made the most of the opportunity, though he did turn the ball over a pair of times and fumbled once, though it was recovered by his team. Hudson finished out 2025 completing 54.7 percent of his 254 pass attempts for 1,253 yards and a 6:7 TD:INT ratio, adding 44 carries for 25 yards and a pair of rushing scores. With Collier presumably slated to resume starting duties in 2026, Hudson could be a candidate to peruse the transfer portal this offseason.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Eli Aragon - Idle for bowl game Aragon (undisclosed) didn't play in Tuesday's bowl game against Louisiana Tech.
Impact Aragon missed three consecutive games to cap off the 2025 season. The junior wideout caught 10 of his 18 targets for 109 yards and no touchdowns. He transferred into the program after an impressive 2024 campaign with Western Illinois.
