Keeshawn Silver Transfers from Kentucky to USC

USC has successfully recruited former Kentucky defensive lineman Keeshawn Silver, a highly sought-after transfer prospect, who will bring significant experience and talent to their defensive line. Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 336 pounds, Silver recorded a career-best 26 tackles this past season and is expected to fill a critical void left by departing starters. The Trojans faced competition from Florida, Miami, Michigan, and North Carolina, where he was previously recruited. With one year of eligibility remaining, Silver aims to make an immediate impact in bolstering USC's defense, which struggled with only 20 sacks last season. He is USC's third transfer addition this offseason, following running back Eli Sanders and cornerback DJ Harvey. The NCAA transfer portal remains a focal point for USC as they look to strengthen their roster ahead of the 2025 season.
