Cade McNamara transferring: 5 possible landing spots
Wisconsin Badgers
Wisconsin has sought veteran quarterbacks in the transfer portal during the first two years of the Luke Fickell era, adding Tanner Mordecai in 2023 and Tyler Van Dyke last offseason. The Badgers could go back to that well again this offseason and McNamara might provide steadier play to the position compared to what they have had recently. Van Dyke suffered a season-ending knee injury early in the 2024 season, forcing sophomore Braedyn Locke into a starting role. Locke struggled mightily down the stretch for a passing offense that ranked 100th among FBS teams. Wisconsin will likely have a couple of young quarterbacks on its roster next season, but McNamara could be a nice one-year fill-in to get things back on track in Madison depending on who becomes the program鈥檚 next offensive coordinator.
