Mandatory Credit: Rob Gray-Imagn Images Utah's All-American defensive end John Henry Daley announced plans on Tuesday to enter the transfer portal.
Daley was tied for the Big 12 in tackles for loss (17.5) and ranked fifth in the nation in sacks (11.5) in 11 games in 2025.
The All-Big 12 first-team selection and Bednarik Award semifinalist's season ended with a lower-body injury on Nov. 22.
Daley said his injury rehab gave him "time to pray and reflect on my future."
"I will be entering the transfer portal fully healthy by the spring of 2026," he posted Tuesday on X.
The 6-foot-4, 255-pound redshirt sophomore from Alpine, Utah who spent his first season at BYU in 2023, has two years of eligibility remaining.
One potential landing spot for Daley is Michigan, which hired longtime Utes coach Kyle Whittingham last week.
The NCAA transfer portal opens Friday.
