Arkansas defensive backs TJ and Tevis Metcalf entered the transfer portal Monday, HawgBeat confirmed.

TJ Metcalf broke out as a starting safety in his second year with the program this fall.

The former four-star prospect logged 57 tackles, one forced fumble, 10 pass deflections and three interceptions as a sophomore this season. He was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week for his performance in the 24-14 win at Auburn, as he had a hand in four of the Razorbacks’ five takeaways with two interceptions, a forced fumble and a pass breakup that led to a Doneiko Slaughter interception. Metcalf had four total tackles and he became the first Arkansas player with at least two interceptions, two pass breakups and one forced fumble in a game since Kenoy

His brother, Tevis, is also entering the transfer portal after spending his freshman season in Fayetteville this year. Tevis was a three-star prospect coming out of Pinson Valley High School in Alabama.

A 5-foot-10, 192-pound Alabama native, Tevis originally chose the Razorbacks over Auburn, Colorado, Georgia Tech and others.

In his lone season with the Hogs, Tevis primarily played special teams and recorded one tackle. He finished the year with a 41.7 Pro Football Focus grade.
