Malik Henry had 2020 to grab hold of the Nevada Wolf Pack starting quarterback job. He will not pursue that opportunity.

After starting two games in 2019, Henry left the team ahead of Spring practice. According to reports, Henry is no longer enrolled at Nevada.

The former highly touted recruit’s future is up in the air after leaving the Wolf Pack.

Nevada added the 6-foot-2 Henry to its roster as a walk-on in January 2019 to provide depth at quarterback. Henry is a former four-star recruit who began his career at Florida State before two seasons at Independence (Kan.) Community College where he was a central figure in Netflix's Last Chance U season three documentary.

In one season with the Seminoles, Henry did not suit up for Florida State, then coached by Jimbo Fisher, and announced his transfer shortly after the season.

"I have decided to transfer from Florida State University," Henry said in the statement. "I want to thank Coach [Jimbo] Fisher and his staff for giving me the opportunity to be a student athlete at FSU. I wish him and the team nothing but success. At this time I don't know what University I will be attending in the future."

The Long Beach, Calif., native, who also had stints at four high schools, had one good start and one bad one during his lone season with the Wolf Pack. Henry was the third quarterback to start a game for Nevada in 2019 and led the Wolf Pack to a 41-38 victory over San Jose State on Oct. 12 (the 41 points were a season high for Nevada). He completed 22-of-37 passes for 352 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions against the Spartans.

During his three games at Nevada, which marked his first playing time at the FBS level, Henry completed 42-of-78 passes (53.8 percent) for 593 yards, one touchdown and four interceptions. He ran 11 times for seven yards.

During the 2019 season, Nevada head coach Jay Norvell removed Henry from participation after off the field issues entered the equation.

“As a coach, it is my responsibility to help young men grow and mature and be prepared for life after football,” Norvell said. “I believed that by giving Malik Henry an opportunity on the field, it would help him continue to progress off the field.

“I’ve made the decision to take Malik off the field so that he can continue to focus on academics and his life outside of football. Malik is not suspended. He is a member of our program and we will continue to support him.”

There were questions earlier this month if Henry would return to the program. Norvell said he was reviewing all options, but the academics and off the field issues and situations were No. 1 on the priority list before Henry had the ability to return to action.

“I need to have a conversation with Malik here before this semester starts and we’ll review his academics," Norvell said Jan. 10. "That hasn’t been finalized yet."

Henry has one year of eligibility remaining and has an opportunity to transfer elsewhere but it is unclear what school would bring him in to compete for a spot.

The departure leaves Nevada with four quarterbacks on the 2020 roster, including three on scholarship in returning starter Carson Strong (a sophomore to be), redshirt freshman Kaiden Bennett and junior Kaymen Cureton.
