"Breaking down the eight biggest mid-season redshirt transfers...

When the new redshirt rule allowing players to appear in four games or less and still maintain a year of eligibility was implemented earlier this year, it was universally lauded by coaches, players and fans alike. The thought process was, younger players could get their feet wet and not lose an entire year for limited playing time.

But what some didn’t see coming was a side effect, allowing veteran players to leave their current schools if they were unhappy with playing time or other factors. Over the past week, a number of players have announced their intentions to leave school and move on to greener pastures. We take a look at eight players who have appeared in games for one school this season but are using the new rule to their advantage and are now headed elsewhere, eligibility intact.

As a recruit: Bryant collected offers from several of college football’s best programs but many coaches thought he might be suited to play tight end at the next level. Eventually Clemson came through with an offer and quickly jumped to the top of Bryant’s list, landing his commitment over Florida.

What he did in college: Bryant patiently waited his turn behind Deshaun Watson and won the Tigers' starting quarterback job heading into the 2017 season, beating out five-star freshman Hunter Johnson. He led Clemson to the College Football Playoff in his first season, where the Tigers lost to eventual national champion Alabama. He once again beat out a five-star freshman this offseason, edging Trevor Lawrence. But the pair split time over the first four games, with Lawrence playing well enough that he won the job from Bryant this week. After being informed of the news, he announced his plans to transfer on Wednesday.

Where he might land: Early speculation has Arkansas as the early favorite, as Chad Morris was involved with his recruitment to Clemson."
