OU sophomore running back Tre Bradford has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to 247Sports. The Daily initially reported on Aug. 26 that Bradford was no longer with the Sooners.

Bradford missed consecutive practices in fall camp last week, according to a source. The Daily reached out to the OU athletics department about the matter and has yet to receive a response.

Bradford, who transferred from LSU in June, was a four-star recruit per Rivals. He had 10 rushes for 53 yards for the Tigers as a freshman and appeared in five games while also recording a touchdown reception. 

Bradford's departure now leaves Oklahoma with just two scholarship running backs in redshirt senior Kennedy Brooks and junior Eric Gray.

Editor's note: This article was updated at 1:10 p.m. CT Monday, Aug. 30 to reflect that 247 Sports confirmed Bradford is in the NCAA Transfer Portal.
