Texas A&M redshirt sophomore quarterback Conner Weigman entered the transfer portal on Tuesday after three seasons with the Aggies.
Weigman joined A&M from Bridgeland High School as the nation’s No. 1-ranked quarterback in the class of 2022 by Rivals and ESPN. The Cypress native started 13 games for the Fightin’ Farmers with a 9-4 record, compiling 2,694 yards with 19 touchdown passes to seven interceptions. He added 261 yards and two scores on the ground.
Weigman made his debut for the Maroon and White on Oct. 22, 2022 in a 30-24 loss at South Carolina after replacing QB Haynes King. He went 2-2 as a starter, including a 38-23 upset against No. 6 LSU and QB Jayden Daniels. Weigman completed 55% of his passes for 896 yards and eight touchdowns as a freshman.
The 21-year-old started 2023 on a high note with a 2-1 record. His season ended, though, with a foot injury suffered versus Auburn. Weigman completed 69% of his passes for 979 yards and eight scores with two interceptions and ran for two more touchdowns.
He struggled to kick off the 2024 season, throwing two interceptions and 100 passing yards in a 23-13 loss to No. 7 Notre Dame. He suffered an AC joint injury in the game that sidelined him for two games, with redshirt freshman Marcel Reed taking over the job.
Weigman returned and had solid games against No. 9 Missouri and Mississippi State, but showed signs of inconsistency against No. 8 LSU on Oct. 26. He was benched for Reed in the second half of the Aggies’ 38-23 win. Weigman didn’t return to action until the New Mexico State game, where he completed two of five passes for 37 yards and a pick. He finished the year with 819 yards on 56% passing with three touchdowns and five picks.
