Arkansas Transfer Players: How Six Former Razorbacks Are Doing

Arkansas Razorbacks On SI reported on Oct. 17, 2026, that six former Arkansas players had posted early results at new schools. Wake Forest’s 2026 statistical splits list Kam Shanks with 17 receptions for 241 yards and one touchdown through seven games.

Shanks has the largest receiving totals, while Texas lists Ian Geffrard in every game and North Texas credits Keshawn Davila with an interception. Oklahoma’s official roster information lists E’Marion Harris in four games, while Troy’s latest depth chart includes Jace Petty and Kavion Henderson.

Key Takeaways

  • Wake Forest’s statistical splits credit Kam Shanks with five catches for 79 yards against California on Oct. 17.
  • Texas lists Ian Geffrard with four tackles against Texas State and five tackles, including one tackle for loss, against Florida.
  • North Texas credits Keshawn Davila with eight tackles, one interception, one pass breakup and 15 interception-return yards.

Arkansas Transfer Players Making the Biggest Early Impact

Wake Forest’s 2026 statistical splits list Shanks with 17 catches for 241 yards and one touchdown through seven games. The same statistical breakdown credits him with five receptions for 79 yards against California on Oct. 17.

Shanks transferred to Wake Forest after playing at Arkansas in 2025, according to Arkansas Razorbacks On SI. His statistical line gives him the highest receiving production among the six former Arkansas players covered in the update.

North Texas credits Davila with eight tackles, one interception, one pass breakup and 15 interception-return yards during the 2026 season. Davila transferred to North Texas after appearing in all 12 Arkansas games in 2025, according to Arkansas Razorbacks On SI.

The North Texas statistical profile identifies Davila’s interception and pass breakup alongside his tackle total. The 15 interception-return yards are included in the same 2026 statistical profile.

Where Former Razorbacks Are Finding Roles

Texas’ roster profile lists Geffrard as having appeared in all seven games for the Longhorns. Texas credits him with four tackles against Texas State and five tackles, including one tackle for loss, against Florida on Oct. 17.

Geffrard transferred from Arkansas to Texas in the spring, according to Arkansas Razorbacks On SI. The Texas roster profile provides the seven-game appearance total and the individual defensive statistics from the Texas State and Florida games.

Oklahoma’s official roster biography credits Harris with starting all 11 games he played at right tackle for Arkansas in 2025 and logging 678 snaps. The same Oklahoma roster information lists Harris as having appeared in four games for the Sooners.

Petty transferred to Troy after leaving Arkansas, according to Arkansas Razorbacks On SI. Henderson also transferred to Troy, with the former Arkansas players appearing in the Trojans’ roster and depth-chart information.

Early Numbers From Arkansas Departures

The comparable 2026 statistics for Shanks, Geffrard and Davila are listed below. The figures include game appearances, production totals and the dated performances identified by the respective team information.

Player New school 2026 games or production Notable dated result
Kam Shanks Wake Forest Seven games; 17 receptions, 241 yards, one touchdown Five catches for 79 yards against California on Oct. 17
Ian Geffrard Texas Seven appearances; four tackles against Texas State Five tackles, including one tackle for loss, against Florida on Oct. 17
Keshawn Davila North Texas Eight tackles, one interception, one pass breakup, 15 interception-return yards Interception recorded during the 2026 season

Oklahoma’s roster information supplies Harris’ 2025 Arkansas starting and snap totals along with his four appearances for the Sooners. The available team information for Petty and Henderson is centered on their Troy roster positions rather than a comparable statistical line.

Troy’s latest depth chart lists Petty as the first option at H receiver and Henderson as a reserve defensive end. Those are the current Troy depth-chart positions for the two former Arkansas players.
