COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Maryland quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. announced Thursday night he’s decided to enter the transfer portal, meaning the Terrapins will likely have a new starter at the position for a second straight season.
Edwards said on social media he’s excited for the opportunities ahead. He threw for 2,881 yards in 11 games this season, his first as Maryland’s No. 1 quarterback after Taulia Tagovailoa held down the position for four years. The Terrapins went 4-8 this season.
Maryland has signed four-star quarterback Malik Washington, one of the highest-ranked recruits in the country at the position, as part of next year’s class.
