Wisconsin Quarterback Braedyn Locke Enters Transfer Portal After Two Seasons

Locke's departure follows a challenging season and leaves Wisconsin's quarterback position in flux for 2025.

Braedyn Locke, Wisconsin's starting quarterback for much of the 2024 season, announced his decision to enter the transfer portal with two years of eligibility remaining.
Locke struggled during his tenure, completing 55.4% of his passes this season with 13 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, contributing to Wisconsin's disappointing performance.
His announcement comes shortly after reports that backup quarterback Tyler Van Dyke also plans to transfer, leaving the Badgers with limited options for next season.
Wisconsin's current quarterback roster includes redshirt freshman Mabrey Mettauer and incoming freshmen Carter Smith and Landyn Locke, Braedyn's younger brother.
Speculation suggests Wisconsin may seek an external quarterback addition for 2025 as Coach Luke Fickell looks to stabilize the position following a turbulent year.
