The list includes a quarterback who started three games, a much-touted receiver who was kept off the field for much of his stint on 40 Acres because of injury, a former starter on the offensive line, and a linebacker that finished sixth on the team in tackles and forced two fumbles.
Also included below is a player who entered the portal prior to the 2022 season.
Players have until Jan. 18 to enter the transfer portal, so there could be some additions to this roster. Here’s a look at the former Texas players and where they will be in action in 2023 and, on some cases, beyond:
