Texas A&M Quarterback Set to Enter Transfer Portal After Two Seasons

A highly touted Texas A&M quarterback is set to explore new options as the transfer portal prepares to open.

Texas A&M QB Miles O’Neill Set to Enter Transfer Portal with Three Years of Eligibility Remaining

Texas A&M quarterback Miles O’Neill is officially on the move.

After two seasons with the Aggies, O’Neill plans to enter the transfer portal when it reopens Friday. The former four-star recruit confirmed his decision Tuesday, signaling the end of his short but intriguing stint in College Station.

O’Neill came to Texas A&M as a member of the 2024 recruiting class, rated as the No. 22 quarterback in the nation by 247Sports’ Composite Rankings. Hailing from Massachusetts, he brought size, arm talent, and a solid pedigree to the quarterback room-tools that made him a promising developmental piece for the Aggies’ future.

But opportunities were limited during his time in maroon and white.

As a true freshman in 2024, O’Neill saw the field briefly in a blowout win over New Mexico State. He made the most of that short window, completing 5-of-6 passes for 51 yards and tossing his first career touchdown. It was a small sample size, but a glimpse of the poise and accuracy that had scouts high on him coming out of high school.

His role expanded slightly in 2025. O’Neill appeared in seven games as a redshirt freshman, with his most notable performance coming early in the season against Utah State. In that matchup, he went 3-for-5 for 99 yards and added his second career touchdown pass-again showing flashes of the upside that made him a four-star prospect.

Now, with three years of eligibility left, O’Neill becomes an intriguing name in the portal. He’s a young quarterback with Power Five experience, a strong arm, and developmental runway-qualities that make him a potential fit for programs looking to build depth or groom their next starter.

He’s not alone in seeking a fresh start. O’Neill is one of eight Texas A&M players expected to enter the portal when it opens, a list that includes veteran defensive back Bryce Anderson. Over four seasons with the Aggies, Anderson put together 116 tackles and two interceptions, becoming a steady presence in the secondary.

The departures reflect a broader shift for Texas A&M as the program transitions under new leadership and looks to reshape its roster heading into 2026. For O’Neill, the move offers a chance to reset and find a system where he can compete for playing time-and potentially take the next step in his development.

Wherever he lands, he’ll bring with him valuable experience, a high football IQ, and the kind of arm talent that still holds plenty of promise.
