Oregon is losing depth at a position it's not especially deep at. Freshman Wayne Tei-Kirby has elected to transfer from the program.

Tei-Kirby played in 9 games this season and recorded 11 tackles on the season.

Tei-Kirby signed with Oregon as part of the 2016 class. He was ranked as the No. 2 player in the state of Idaho, according to the 247Sports Composite.

He cites BYU as his next destination but will be forced to sit out a season under the NCAA transfer rules.
