UW picked up veteran wide receiver Omari Evans from Penn State via the transfer portal on Wednesday. Evans had 415 receiving yards and five TDs this past season.

After what happened in State College this past November, Penn State probably owed the University of Washington football team a little something to cover damages. Consider wide receiver Omari Evans part of that payoff.

Former Penn State wide receiver Omari Evans announced that he is transferring to Washington. Evans entered the transfer portal following Penn State’s season ending loss in the Orange Bowl to Notre Dame.

Washington added what seems likely to be their final addition in the transfer portal before the spring tonight by bringing in Penn State WR Omari Evans. The 6’0 senior will have 1 year of eligibility remaining (with a redshirt available) after finishing this season with 415 yards and 5 TDs.

Former Penn State receiver Omari Evans, who entered the NCAA Transfer Portal after the Orange Bowl, will play for the Washington Huskies in 2025.
