Illinois opened fall training camp Saturday. It did so without redshirt freshman quarterback Samari Collier, who announced he was entering the transfer portal after one season with the Illini. Collier had already been removed from the Illinois roster wit hin an hour of his transfer announcement. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound quarterback out of Dallas did not appear in any games in 2021 for the Illini. Collier was third on the depth chart during spring practices behind Tommy DeVito and walk-on Ryan Johnson, and would have been fourth if Art Sitkowski hadn't been held out in the spring. Illinois will enter the 2022 season with seven quarterbacks on its roster. DeVito and Sitkowski are at the top of the depth chart and are followed by Johnson, true freshman Dono van Leary and walk-ons Kirkland Michaux, Jake Huber and Jameson Sheehan. - News Gazette Tribune

Second-year Illinois quarterback Samari Collier entered the transfer portal, according to Jeremy Werner of 247 Sports. Collier will look for a fresh start after seeing the writing on the wall about his playing time for the upcoming year, with both Tommy DeVito and Artur Sitkowski ahead of him on the depth chart. The Dallas product had yet to see any playing time with the Illini, and will now likely look for a situation in which he can jump in and compete for snaps immediately. - 247Sports.com/Rotowire.c om
