Arizona redshirt sophomore Isaiah Ward and junior edge rusher Russell Davis II have entered the transfer portal, according to multiple reports including from Rivals.

This past season, Ward, who started at the KAT position, logged 30 total tackles, four sacks and two forced fumbles.

One of Wards' forced fumbles came created a huge momentum swing for the Wildcats in their Alamo Bowl victory over Oklahoma. The California native will have three more years eligibility.

Davis backed up Ward at KAT, tallying 17 tackles, along with 3 1/2 sacks. The former Hamilton High School star's best game as a Wildcat came against USC during a game in which he logged five total tackles and 1 1/2 sacks at the Coliseum.

New UA defensive line coach Joe Seumalo may now need to search in the transfer portal in hopes of filling in the void that Davis II and Ward are leaving, or potentially convince the duo to stay in Tucson another season.
