Former Stanford defensive lineman Jaxson Moi said Sunday that he is transferring to Tennessee.

A 6-foot-2, 303-pound sophomore, Moi entered the transfer portal on Dec. 31. He made official visits to Washington and Arizona, which each have had replaced head coaches since the season ended, before visiting Knoxville, Tenn., this weekend.

Last season, Moi played in all 12 games (seven starts) and made 15 tackles, including one tackle for loss and one-half sack, as well as one pass deflection.

As a freshman in 2022, Moi played in all 12 games and started one at defensive tackle. He recorded 22 tackles, including 4.5 tackles for loss, one-half sack, one quarterback hurry and two pass deflections.

Moi, whose father Junior Moi played football at Southern California, is from Oceanside, Calif., and was a three-star recruit by the 247Sports Composite out of Cathedral Catholic in San Diego in the Class of 2022.
