Former Boston College Eagles football defensive back Jalen Cheek has announced his transfer destination. The redshirt junior, who is transferring to UAB in Birmingham, Ala., shared his decision in a social media post on Tuesday afternoon.

The Eagles will miss a standout senior class, yet they have a healthy blend of veterans, up-and-comers, transfers, and incoming freshmen eager to fill the void.

The Boston College Eagles football program has picked up Alabama transfer tight end Ty Lockwood out of the transfer portal. “Alabama tight end Ty Lockwood has signed with Boston College, @On3sports has learned,” said On3Sports transfer portal reporter Pete Nakos via X. “Former four-star recruit reunites with QB Dylan Lonergan.”
