CINCINNATI — We pick up another look at the transfer portal with a Cincinnati offer for Texas State linebacker Dan Foster following the portal entry from 2023 starting linebacker Dorian Jones.

Foster transferred from Marshall to TSU last season, posting 52 tackles, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery.

It amounted to a 57.1 PFF grade across 575 defensive snaps (66.6 in run defense, 54.8 in coverage).

A Bearcats tight end entered the transfer portal this week in Barak Faulk. 

The redshirt senior appeared in five games last season as a backup and special teams option. It was his first season appearing in games since entering the program in 2020.
