Darian Mensah shockingly enters transfer portal after re-signing with Duke in December

The college football transfer portal window will officially close on Friday. However, some players around the nation are entering the portal at the last minute. One of which, shockingly enough, is Duke Blue Devils quarterback Darian Mensah.

Mensah, who will be a redshirt junior in the 2026-27 season, informed Duke that he is entering the transfer portal despite re-signing with the program in December, according to Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer of CBS Sports. The Blue Devils will have to find a new starting quarterback for next year.

“Duke star QB Darian Mensah has now informed the Blue Devils that he plans to enter the transfer portal, sources tell me and Chris Hummer for CBS Sports.”

It was initially reported that Mensah signed a two-year, $8 million deal back on December 19. At the time of the signing, he appeared to be ecstatic to return to Duke for his junior year. But now, nearly a month later, Mensah is packing his bags for a new opportunity elsewhere.

This story is currently developing, and more information will be published soon.
