Kentucky tight end Jordan Dingle has entered the transfer portal, according to ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg.

The 6-foot-4 Bowling Green product will have two years of eligibility remaining. He’s entering the portal as a grad transfer.

Dingle recorded 11 catches for 198 yards in 2023, which was a slight step back from his 20-reception, 220-yard, three-touchdown performance from 2022. Dingle played sparingly in 2021, reeling in two catches for 54 yards during a redshirt season.

Dingle was a member of the Freshman All-SEC team and was named to the SEC All-Academic team as a redshirt freshman in 2022.

He was rated as a 3-star recruit out of high school in the 2021 recruiting class. Arkansas, Missouri, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Kansas, Louisville, Northwestern, Ohio State, and Purdue all showed interest when he was a high school recruit.

At 6-foot-4 and 238 pounds, Dingle has ideal size for a Power Five tight end.

Kentucky TE Jordan Dingle is in the transfer portal as a graduate student. He had 11 receptions for 198 yards in only four games this season, after 20 receptions for 220 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2022.
