Georgia Tech wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr. enters the NCAA Transfer Portal. Singleton spent two seasons with the Yellow Jackets.

Singleton started in all 12 of the Yellow Jackets’ regular-season games this season, tallying a team-high 56 catches for 754 yards and three touchdowns. Singleton’s 754 yards are the 12th-most in the ACC.

Singleton’s best performance of the season in Georgia Tech’s narrow 30-29 victory over NC State in Week 13. He finished the game with five catches for a season-high 106 yards. Singleton followed up the spectacular performance with eight catches for 86 total yards and a touchdown against Georgia.

Singleton’s standout sophomore effort was far from surprising. The Peach State native made an immediate impact as a freshman in 2023. In his debut campaign, Singleton amassed 48 receptions for 714 total yards and six scores.

For his efforts, Singleton was named a Freshman All-American by On3, along with numerous other outlets. Additionally, Singleton was an All-ACC Honorable Mention and finished second in voting for ACC Offensive Rookie of the Year.

In November, Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key raved about his standout WR.

“His development as a true receiver, it’s been great to see, to watch the chemistry he has with the quarterback, the way he affects others around him, his work ethic,” Key said.

“I think he’s grown so much as a receiver, but also so much emotionally. Being able to have a drop, be able to put it behind him, move on to the next one, then make a big play later on down the road.”

Eric Singleton Jr. played high school football at Alexander (GA), where he was a three-star prospect. Singleton was the No. 1,078 overall recruit and No. 164 wide receiver in the 2023 recruiting cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Now, Singleton will look to find a new home in the transfer portal. Brent Key isn’t a stranger to players leaving the program. Last offseason, Georgia Tech lost 26 players to the transfer portal.
